STAR HOSPITALS A PIONEER IN MINIMALLY INVASIVE HEART SURGERY WITH HIGHEST NUMBER OF SUCCESSFUL CASES

Backed by the well-experienced and proficient team of Surgeons, STAR Hospitals is certainly one of the best centres for Minimally Invasive Surgery. The hospital has became a name synonymous with the Minimally Invasive procedures particularly in the case of Heart Operations.

“Heart Operation” is usually associated with significant incisions. Minimally Invasive Heart Surgery is the latest and advanced treatment procedure which can be performed with very minor incisions. Let’s explore more!!

Once the patient is diagnosed with a Heart Disease, operation is generally performed as per the normsto prevent Heart Attack in near future. It is also called Open Heart Surgery.

In the traditional Heart Operation procedure, surgeons reach out to the heart with a deep slit in the middle of the chest and by slicing the “T” shaped chest bone called Sternum. It’s approximately 17 cms in length with 24 bones (12 on each side). First 7 sets of bones are directly attached to Sternum, next three sets are attached through Cartilage and the last two sets are not attached to Sternum.

IN MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY

We know that, Heart pumps the blood to various parts of the body. When it is filled with blood, the size of the heart will be increased. But in minimally invasive surgery, heart’s functionality is replaced with a device called Heart-Lung Machine, which temporarily pumps the blood. Because of this technique, heart size will be reduced and the surgery can be performed with minimal incisions.

ADVANTAGES OF MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY

• In traditional procedure, it usually takes 3 months to recover because of 20-25 length incisions whereas in minimally invasive it is very nominal
• Bleeding of blood is also very less
• Less chances of infection
• You can get back to work very quickly

CAN ALSO BE PERFORMED ON CHILDREN

Minimally invasive procedures can also be performed on children. Heart problems related to walls between the top chambers (Atrial Septal Deviation) and bottom chambers (ventricular septal deviation) can be treated. For further details contact-9573582082

IN FUTURE

Key Hole surgery is the future of operating procedures where just with a small hole entire treatment can be performed. Subsequently, we can expect pricing and recovery time to get significantly reduced.
