Valve Repair & Replacement Surgery
Restoring heart valve function for a healthier life.
Valve repair and replacement surgery is performed to treat heart valve disease that can cause leakage (regurgitation) or narrowing (stenosis). This life-saving surgery helps restore normal blood flow and improve heart function.
Types of Valve Procedures
- Mitral Valve Repair or Replacement
- Aortic Valve Replacement (including TAVI/TAVR)
- Tricuspid Valve Repair
- Pulmonary Valve Surgery
When is Valve Surgery Needed?
You may require valve surgery if you experience symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, irregular heartbeat, or swelling in legs due to valve dysfunction. Diagnostic tests like echocardiography, MRI, or cardiac catheterization help determine the need.
Valve Repair vs Replacement
Whenever possible, repairing the native valve is preferred as it preserves natural tissue. When valves are beyond repair, replacement is done using mechanical or biological (tissue) prostheses. Your cardiac surgeon will decide based on valve condition and patient profile.
Advantages of Timely Surgery
- Improved heart function and energy levels
- Relief from breathlessness and fatigue
- Prevention of heart failure and complications
- Improved quality of life and longevity
