CABG is a surgical procedure that restores blood flow to the heart by bypassing blocked coronary arteries using grafts from other parts of the body.
Patients with multiple coronary artery blockages, especially those who have failed angioplasty or stenting, may be candidates for CABG.
It involves correcting or replacing faulty heart valves to ensure proper blood flow through the heart chambers.
TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation) is a minimally invasive procedure to replace a narrowed aortic valve in patients who are high risk for open surgery.
ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) is an advanced support system that temporarily takes over the function of the heart and/or lungs in critical patients.
Patients with severe heart or lung failure who do not respond to conventional treatments may benefit from ECMO.
A heart transplant is the surgical replacement of a failing or diseased heart with a healthy donor heart.
Lung transplant is a procedure where one or both diseased lungs are replaced with healthy donor lungs, typically in end-stage lung disease.
Board-certified cardiac and thoracic surgeons with specialized training and extensive experience perform these procedures. They work in collaboration with a multidisciplinary heart team.
You can call our helpline or use our online booking system to schedule an appointment. Walk-ins are also welcome during OPD hours.
MICS is a technique that allows cardiac procedures through small incisions without splitting the breastbone, resulting in faster recovery and less pain.
MICS provides reduced blood loss, less infection risk, smaller scars, quicker return to work, and shorter hospital stays.
It involves lifestyle changes, medications, and advanced therapies including pacemakers, LVADs, or transplant evaluation for heart failure patients.
Symptoms include shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling in legs, rapid weight gain, and persistent coughing or wheezing.
VATS (Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery) is a minimally invasive technique to perform lung and chest surgeries using a camera and small instruments.
Conditions include lung cancer, pleural effusions, pneumothorax, mediastinal tumors, and lung biopsies.
It depends on the type of procedure. For MICS or TAVI, patients may recover in 1–2 weeks; traditional open surgery may require 4–6 weeks.
All surgeries carry some risk. Our specialists conduct thorough preoperative evaluations to minimize and manage risks effectively.
Preparation includes preoperative tests, consultation with the surgical team, medication management, and lifestyle adjustments like quitting smoking.
You can reach our team via the hospital hotline, patient portal, or by visiting our outpatient cardiac clinic during working hours.
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is a non-surgical procedure for aortic valve replacement in high-risk surgical patients.
Most TAVI procedures take about 1 to 2 hours and do not require general anesthesia in many cases.
ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) is a life-saving support system used when the heart or lungs are failing.
Yes, ECMO is used in both pediatric and adult patients with life-threatening cardiac or respiratory failure.
Patients with end-stage heart failure who do not respond to medical or device therapy may be considered for a transplant.
Waiting time varies based on donor availability, blood type, body size, and urgency of the case.
You can book through our hospital website, helpline, or walk into our outpatient department between 9 AM and 5 PM.
Yes, every patient receives a detailed consultation with the cardiac or thoracic surgeon to discuss treatment options and expectations.
Our cardiothoracic team includes highly experienced, internationally trained surgeons with expertise in both traditional and minimally invasive techniques.
Yes, we offer online consultations with our specialists for patients residing outside the city or for pre-surgical discussions.
