The Cardiac Surgery (Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, or CVTS) Department at Indigo Hospital offers comprehensive surgical care for heart, lung, and vascular conditions. Our skilled team of cardiothoracic surgeons, anesthesiologists, cardiac nurses, and perfusionists specializes in advanced, minimally invasive techniques and complex open-heart procedures to deliver life-saving treatments with precision and compassion.
Our CVTS services focus on achieving the best outcomes for each patient, whether undergoing routine procedures or complex surgeries. Key areas of expertise include:
– Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) : For patients with blocked coronary arteries, our surgeons perform CABG, often referred to as “heart bypass surgery,” to restore blood flow and reduce the risk of heart attacks. We offer both traditional open surgery and minimally invasive options based on each patient’s needs.
– Heart Valve Surgery : For conditions affecting heart valves, such as stenosis or regurgitation, we offer valve repair and replacement using either mechanical or biological valves. Our minimally invasive techniques and transcatheter procedures allow faster recovery times and reduced risks.
– Aortic Surgery : Our team specializes in aortic aneurysm repair and aortic dissection surgery, which are complex procedures essential for preventing life-threatening complications. We use advanced imaging and planning tools to ensure precise treatment.
– Thoracic Surgery : For patients with lung tumors, pleural diseases, or other thoracic issues, our team performs video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and robotic-assisted thoracic surgery, both of which are minimally invasive approaches that reduce pain and improve recovery.
– Congenital Heart Surgery : For children and adults with congenital heart defects, our specialists offer corrective surgeries to treat structural heart abnormalities, ensuring improved cardiac function and quality of life.
– Heart Transplant and Mechanical Circulatory Support : For advanced heart failure patients, we offer heart transplant services and implant devices such as ventricular assist devices (VADs) to support heart function until transplant.
Our CVTS department is equipped with state-of-the-art operating rooms, robotic-assisted systems, and intraoperative imaging technologies that enable precision and safety in every procedure. We also emphasize comprehensive post-operative care, including cardiac rehabilitation, nutrition support, and lifestyle counseling to aid in long-term recovery and heart health.
At Indigo Hospital’s Cardiac Surgery Department, our commitment is to provide world-class cardiovascular and thoracic care, helping patients overcome heart and lung conditions and achieve a healthy, active life. Through compassionate care, advanced techniques, and a patient-centered approach, we strive to deliver the highest standard of cardiac surgery.
