Aortic Valve Replacement in India

Overview

Blood flow can be impeded by a defective or damaged aortic valve, which makes the heart work harder to pump blood to the rest of the body. Aortic valve replacement or repair can increase blood flow, lessen heart valve disease symptoms, and lengthen life. If the aortic valve in your heart is malfunctioning, you might require this surgery. The main artery in your body, the aorta, receives blood from your heart when this valve opens, then it travels to the rest of your body. Aortic valve closure prevents blood from returning the wrong way to the heart. Every time the heart beats, this cycle continues. Aortic valve replacement can be carried out in either traditional open heart surgery, which requires a cut in the chest or using minimally invasive techniques, which entail tiny incisions in the chest or the insertion of a catheter in the leg or chest

Procedure Details

The aortic valve is a type of heart valve disease. The valve between the lower left heart chamber (left ventricle) and the main artery to the body (aorta) does not function properly in aortic valve disease. The aortic valve keeps blood flowing through the heart in the right direction. Congenital heart disease: Congenital heart disease refers to one or more structural problems with the heart that have existed since birth. Congenital means that you were born with the disorder. Adults and children with congenital heart disease can experience changes in the way blood flows through the heart. Aortic valve stenosis: When calcium deposits on the valve leaflets, further reducing their mobility, aortic valve stenosis advances
