Medical Procedures

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)

On-pump / Off-pump CABG is a gold-standard surgery for patients with severe coronary artery disease. It restores blood flow to the heart by creating new routes (bypasses) around blocked arteries.

On-pump CABG uses a heart-lung machine to support circulation during surgery. Off-pump CABG (beating-heart surgery) is performed without stopping the heart and is suitable for select patients, potentially reducing recovery time and complications.

Valve Replacement and Repairs (Aortic, Mitral)

We offer both valve repair (preserving native valve function) and valve replacement using mechanical or bioprosthetic valves for conditions such as:

Aortic stenosis or regurgitation Mitral valve prolapse or insufficiency

These procedures restore proper blood flow and prevent heart failure progression.

Aortic Aneurysm Surgery

Surgical repair of aneurysms (weakened, bulging areas) in the aorta helps prevent life-threatening ruptures. Depending on the location and size, procedures may involve:

Open surgical repair
Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) for less invasive treatment of abdominal or thoracic aortic aneurysms

Carotid Endarterectomy

This surgery removes plaque buildup from the carotid arteries in the neck, which supply blood to the brain. It’s a key intervention for stroke prevention in patients with significant carotid artery stenosis.

Lung Resections

Performed to treat pulmonary tumors or diseased lung tissue, lung resections may include:

Lobectomy – removal of a lung lobe
Segmentectomy – removal of a portion of a lobe
Pneumonectomy – removal of an entire lung (in advanced cases)

We use minimally invasive techniques (VATS) when possible to reduce pain and recovery time.

Vascular Bypass Surgery & AV Fistula Creation

Vascular Bypass Surgery is performed to reroute blood flow around blocked arteries in the limbs, helping manage Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) and prevent limb loss.

Arteriovenous (AV) Fistula Creation is a critical procedure for patients with end-stage renal disease who require long-term dialysis access.

Medical Conditions

Triple Vessel Coronary Artery Disease

This condition involves severe blockages in all three major coronary arteries and is commonly managed with CABG surgery, which offers improved survival and symptom relief compared to stenting in select cases.

Severe Valvular Heart Disease

This includes:

Aortic stenosis or insufficiency

Mitral regurgitation or prolapse When valves fail to function properly, surgical repair or replacement is essential to restore normal blood flow and prevent heart failure or arrhythmias.

Aortic Dissections

Aortic dissection is a medical emergency where a tear develops in the inner layer of the aorta. Rapid surgical intervention is critical to prevent rupture or organ damage, especially in Type A dissections affecting the ascending aorta.

Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)

PVD causes narrowed arteries in the limbs, leading to pain, ulcers, and tissue death. Vascular bypass surgery is often required to restore blood flow and prevent amputation.

Pulmonary Tumors

Surgical lung resection is the standard treatment for many primary lung cancers and benign but obstructive lung masses. Early detection and timely surgical management offer the best chance for long-term survival.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the difference between on-pump and off-pump bypass surgery?

On-pump uses a heart-lung machine; off-pump avoids it, offering quicker recovery for select patients.

2. How long is the recovery after open-heart surgery?

Usually 6–8 weeks, depending on the procedure and patient health.

3. Are all valve diseases surgically treated?

Not always. Some may be managed with interventional or medical approaches first.
