Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery : Uses smaller incisions and advanced techniques to access the heart, leading to faster recovery and less pain compared to traditional open-heart surgery.
Robotic Cardiac Surgery : Employs a robotic system controlled by a surgeon to perform complex heart procedures with greater precision and flexibility.
Redo Valve and Coronary Surgeries : Corrects complications or prior surgeries on heart valves or coronary arteries.
Surgery of ascending aortic aneurysms and dissections : Repairs weakened or damaged sections of the aorta, the major artery leaving the heart.
CABG in patients with poor ventricular function : Uses bypass surgery to improve blood flow to the heart muscle in patients with weakened heart function.
Valve repair and replacement : Restores function of damaged heart valves through repair or replacement procedures.
Surgery for heart failure : Offers various options including heart transplantation for severe cases, or ventricular assist devices to support a failing heart.
Total Arterial Coronary Bypass : Utilizes arteries from elsewhere in the body, rather than veins, to create bypass grafts for long-lasting coronary artery blockage solutions.
Carotid Angioplasty And Stenting : Opens narrowed carotid arteries in the neck to prevent stroke using a balloon and stent.
Coronary Angioplasty / Bypass Surgery : Procedures to improve blood flow to the heart by opening blocked coronary arteries with a balloon (angioplasty) or creating bypass grafts (surgery).
