Treatment and Procedure performed at Gleneagles Hospital, Lakdi-Ka-Pul, Hyderabad
Angioplasty & Stenting
This treatment reopens arteries that have become constricted or blocked due to the accumulation of fatty plaque. A stent is a tube used to keep the artery open and allow for free blood flow. Angioplasty is not a very complex procedure, and patients often return home the day after the operation.
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR)
TAVR is a minimally invasive procedure in which a replacement heart valve is inserted into or placed inside the damaged heart valve. It is recommended for individuals with moderate risk and aortic stenosis.
Bentall Procedure
The Bentall procedure is a cardiac operation used to replace or repair the aortic root, aortic valve, or ascending aortic root lesion. Patients with ascending and root aortic aneurysms associated with aortic valve regurgitation are advised to undergo this procedure, considered the gold standard of interventions.
Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS)
MICS, sometimes known as keyhole surgery, is a surgical procedure that involves making significantly smaller incisions on the body than traditional open surgery, reducing the risk to the patient and shortening the recovery period.
Heart Valve Repair & Replacement Treatment
