Cardiac Surgery
Our Cardiac Surgery Department excels in complex heart surgeries, using best of technology, exemplary protocols and novel techniques.
Our experts are at the forefront of developing innovative approaches to improve outcomes and lives.
From bypass surgeries to minimally-invasive heart valve replacements, we offer the full spectrum of cardiac procedures under one roof.
Vascular bypass surgery is a surgical procedure performed to create an alternate pathway for blood flow when an artery is blocked or narrowed, typically due to atherosclerosis or other vascular conditions. During the procedure, a healthy blood vessel, often harvested from another part of the body or obtained from a tissue bank, is used to reroute blood flow around the obstructed or damaged segment of the artery.
It is surgical repair of aneurysms, which are abnormal bulges in the blood vessels, particularly in the aorta.
CABG is a surgical procedure that is used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD). During the procedure, the doctor surgically connects a healthy blood vessel from your leg, arm or chest to the heart and creates a new pathway around the blocked or the partially blocked artery to restore blood flow.
Valve replacement is a surgical procedure that aims to replace a damaged or diseased heart valve with either an artificial valve or a biological valve from a donor. This procedure is usually performed to treat conditions such as valve stenosis (narrowing) or valve regurgitation (leakage), which can considerably affect the heart's ability to pump blood effectively.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common cardiovascular condition characterized by the narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, which supply blood and oxygen to the heart muscle. It can lead to various complications, such as angina (chest pain), heart attack, or heart failure. Lifestyle modifications, medications, and medical procedures like angioplasty or bypass surgery are often used to manage CAD. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment options.
Valvular heart disease refers to conditions affecting the heart valves, such as valve stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (leakage). Valve repair or replacement surgeries are commonly performed to improve valve function and restore normal blood flow.
An aortic aneurysm is a bulge in the wall of the aorta, the main artery carrying oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body. If left untreated, an aneurysm can rupture, leading to life-threatening bleeding. Surgical intervention may involve either repairing or replacing the damaged portion of the aorta.
Congenital heart defects are abnormalities in the structure of the heart that are present at birth. In some cases, surgical correction may be necessary to repair the defect and improve heart function. Examples of congenital heart surgeries include atrial septal defect closure, ventricular septal defect repair, or Tetralogy of Fallot repair.
