Cardiac Surgery

Aortic Root Replacement

Aortic root replacement surgery is performed to repair an aneurysm that affects a part of the aorta connected to the heart. An aneurysm is defined as a fragile area in a blood vessel. In fact, it becomes a life-threatening situation if the aneurysm tears, bursts, or ruptures. This can lead to internal bleeding, which poses a danger to life. Therefore, aneurysm surgery helps in the prevention of dissection or rupture. -br Aortic root replacement surgery in India is performed to replace both the aortic root and the aortic valve. Alternatively, in some cases, only the aortic root is replaced, while the valve is left intact. Ultimately, the decision regarding the procedure depends on various factors, with the most important being the health condition of the aortic valve.

Carotid Angioplasty

Carotid angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat carotid artery disease, a condition where the arteries in the neck become narrowed or blocked due to plaque buildup. Since these arteries supply blood to the brain, any blockage increases the risk of stroke. With carotid angioplasty, doctors can open up these narrowed arteries, restore blood flow, and significantly reduce the chances of life-threatening complications.

Angiography

Angiography in India is an X-ray that is used to check blood vessels. However, blood vessels cannot be seen clearly in an X-ray. Therefore, before an angiography, a patient is induced with a special type of dye called a contrast agent. This dye needs to be injected into the blood first to get a clear vision of the blood vessels. Consequently, this clear vision of the blood vessels will help the doctor to identify the problem or disease. Finally, the images from the X-ray during angiography are called angiograms.

Mitral Valve Replacement

Mitral Valve Replacement is a critical surgical procedure performed to treat severe mitral valve diseases when repair is not possible. The mitral valve, located between the left atrium and the left ventricle of the heart, plays an essential role in regulating blood flow. When it becomes narrowed (mitral stenosis) or leaky (mitral regurgitation), the heart struggles to pump blood efficiently. In such cases, valve replacement surgery becomes necessary to restore normal cardiac function and improve quality of life. -br At CureU Healthcare, we connect international patients with world-class cardiac surgeons and advanced hospitals in India that specialize in mitral valve replacement, ensuring the best outcomes at affordable costs.

LVAD Lifeline for Advanced Heart Failure

LVAD implantation is one of the most important advancements in modern heart failure management and mechanical circulatory support therapy. The device is surgically implanted inside the chest and connected to the heart and aorta to help circulate oxygen rich blood throughout the body. An external controller and portable battery system continuously power the pump and allow patients to maintain mobility during daily life. LVAD therapy is commonly recommended for individuals with advanced heart failure who continue to experience severe fatigue, breathlessness, fluid retention, or repeated hospitalization despite maximum medical treatment. Contemporary continuous flow LVAD systems are smaller, more durable, and associated with improved long term outcomes compared to earlier generation devices. In specialized cardiac centers, LVAD implantation is performed by multidisciplinary teams involving heart failure specialists, cardiac surgeons, intensivists, rehabilitation experts, and transplant coordinators to ensure safe recovery and long term device management.

Atrial Septal Defect Closure-ASD

A wall that makes a division between the left and right chambers of the heart is known as the septum. An atrial septal defect closure (ASD) is a procedure to close the hole or any deformity. Specifically, an atrial septal defect is a deformity or a hole in the septum that splits the chambers of the heart. The septum is also commonly known as the wall of the heart. As a result, the deformity proceeds with the oxygen-rich blood, which then turns and leaks into the oxygen-poor blood chambers in the heart.

Double Inlet Left Ventricle (DILV)

Double Inlet Left Ventricle (DILV) is a rare and complex congenital heart defect that affects the way blood flows through the heart. In this condition, both atria (the two upper chambers of the heart) are connected to the left ventricle, instead of having one atrium connected to the right ventricle and the other to the left. As a result, the right ventricle is either very small or underdeveloped, which disrupts the heart’s normal pumping function. -br At CureU Healthcare, we specialize in connecting international patients with world-class pediatric cardiologists and cardiac surgeons in India, offering advanced treatment options for children born with congenital heart conditions such as DILV.

Angioplasty and Stent Placement

Angioplasty, also known as Percutaneous Coronary Intervention PCI, is a modern interventional cardiology procedure designed to treat blocked or narrowed heart arteries caused by plaque buildup. During the procedure, a thin catheter is guided through the blood vessel to the blocked area, where a balloon is inflated to widen the artery. A stent, which is a small expandable mesh tube, is then placed to support the artery and maintain healthy blood flow. Drug eluting stents are commonly used to reduce the risk of re narrowing. The procedure avoids major open heart surgery in suitable patients and offers faster recovery, shorter hospital stay, and effective symptom relief for individuals with coronary artery disease.

PDA Device Closure

PDA Device Closure is a minimally invasive cardiac procedure used to treat Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA), a congenital heart condition where a small blood vessel (ductus arteriosus) fails to close naturally after birth. While this condition is common among premature babies, it can also affect full-term infants. If left untreated, PDA may lead to complications such as heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, or growth issues. -br At CureU Healthcare, we connect patients with leading pediatric cardiologists and advanced cardiac centers in India that specialize in PDA closure using the latest technology, ensuring safe, effective, and affordable treatment.

Pediatric Cardiomyopathy

Pediatric cardiomyopathy is a rare but serious condition that affects the heart muscle in children, making it harder for the heart to pump blood effectively. Unlike adult cardiomyopathy, this condition in children often stems from genetic, metabolic, or structural abnormalities. If left untreated, it may lead to complications such as heart failure, arrhythmias, or even sudden cardiac arrest. -br At CureU Healthcare, we connect families with expert pediatric cardiologists and advanced treatment facilities in India, ensuring timely diagnosis, personalized treatment, and compassionate care for children living with this condition.
