Cardiovascular surgery is a medical specialty that involves the surgical treatment of diseases of the heart and vascular system. Surgeons working in this field perform surgical interventions on heart valve diseases, coronary artery disease, aortic diseases, heart rhythm disorders and other cardiovascular problems. As Enodia Health, we are committed to providing the best care to our patients with our teams specialized in cardiovascular surgery and modern surgical techniques.
Interventions in the Field of Cardiovascular Surgery
- Coronary Artery Surgery: Coronary artery disease is a condition that occurs as a result of blockage of the heart vessels. Cardiovascular surgeons perform coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery to bypass blocked coronary arteries.
- Heart Valve Surgery: Heart valve diseases may occur as a result of narrowing or failure of the heart valves. Cardiovascular surgeons treat these diseases with procedures such as valve repairs or prosthetic valve implantation.
- Aortic Surgery: Aortic diseases may include conditions such as enlargement (aneurysm) or rupture (aortic dissection) of the aorta. Cardiovascular surgeons perform open or endovascular surgical procedures for the repair of aortic aneurysms and dissections.
- Heart Rhythm Surgery: Heart rhythm disorders are problems associated with the irregularity or speed of heartbeats. Cardiovascular surgeons treat these disorders with procedures such as pacemaker implantation, cardioversion, or ablation.
- Congenital Heart Surgery: Congenital heart anomalies may require surgical intervention in childhood or adulthood. Cardiovascular surgeons perform surgical procedures for ventricular septal defect (VSD) repair, atrial septal defect (ASD) closure, and correction of other congenital heart anomalies.
Innovation and Technology in Cardiovascular Surgery
Cardiovascular surgery is supported by constantly evolving technology and surgical techniques. Innovations such as minimally invasive surgical techniques, robotic surgical systems and 3D imaging technology enable surgeons to intervene more precisely and effectively.
Cardiovascular surgery plays a critical role in the surgical treatment of cardiovascular diseases. At Enodia Health, we are committed to providing the best care to our patients with our expertise and experience in cardiovascular surgery. We work to maximize the health and well-being of our patients with our modern surgical techniques and multidisciplinary approach.
