• Angioplasty & Stenting: Complex catheter-based procedures for clearing blocked heart arteries. Includes interventions for left main and calcific lesions (using rotational atherectomy), as well as antegrade and retrograde techniques for chronic total occlusions.
• Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG): Advanced, traditional open-heart surgical techniques used to bypass blocked arteries, restore blood flow to the heart muscle, and prevent heart attacks.

• Valve Replacement & Repair: Cutting-edge surgical procedures to correct abnormalities in the heart’s valves, restoring proper, one-way blood flow.
• Targeted Valve Surgeries (Mitral & Aortic): Expert surgical solutions specifically focused on repairing or replacing damaged mitral or aortic valves.
• Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI/TAVR): A minimally invasive, catheter-based valve replacement procedure designed primarily for patients considered high-risk for traditional open-heart surgery.

• Electrophysiological Studies (EPS) & 3D Mapping: Advanced diagnostic procedures that map the electrical activity of the heart to pinpoint the exact source of abnormal rhythms.
• Radiofrequency (RF) Ablation: A minimally invasive treatment that uses heat energy to destroy the small areas of heart tissue causing ventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation.
• Pacemaker & Device Implantation: The surgical placement of devices used to treat heart failure and prevent sudden cardiac death. This includes the implantation of the MICRA Transcatheter Pacing System (TPS), the world’s smallest, leadless pacemaker.

• Dedicated Heart Failure Care: Comprehensive inpatient and outpatient care, including hemodynamic studies for the early detection and tracking of disease progression.
• Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO): A life-saving mechanical support system that temporarily takes over the function of the heart and lungs for critically ill patients.
• Ventricular Assist Devices (L-VAD): Implantable mechanical pumps that support heart function and blood flow in people with weakened hearts.

• Aortic Aneurysm & Dissection Management: Specialized surgical care for life-threatening aortic conditions, including enlarged aortas (aneurysms) and tears in the aortic wall (dissections).
• Peripheral Vascular Surgeries: Surgical interventions addressing blockages and abnormalities in major peripheral blood vessels, including limb-salvage angioplasties to prevent amputation.
• Endovascular & Hybrid Procedures: The combination of traditional open surgery and minimally invasive catheter-based (endovascular) techniques for repairing complex aneurysms and vascular diseases.

• General Lung Surgeries: Comprehensive surgical treatments for lung diseases, chest tumors, and other thoracic cavity conditions.
• Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS): Precise, minimally invasive surgical approaches using a small camera and instruments to treat lung and chest wall conditions without opening the chest.

• Advanced Coronary Imaging (IVUS & OCT): Intravascular Ultrasound and Optical Coherence Tomography used from inside the blood vessels to provide highly detailed, microscopic views of arterial blockages.
• Non-Invasive Cardiac Imaging: High-resolution structural and functional assessments utilizing Advanced 1.5T Cardiac MRI and 128-slice CT coronary angiography.

This rapidly advancing tier of cardiothoracic surgery focuses on mitigating surgical stress, reducing incisions, and enhancing patient recovery. It is highly effective for conditions such as aortic valve disease, atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, and coronary artery disease.

• Robotic-Assisted Cardiac Surgery: Utilizes robotic arms controlled by the surgeon to maneuver in tight, hard-to-see areas. This improves surgical precision, reduces blood loss, and elevates the safety profile of complex operations.
• Minimally Invasive CABG: Performing necessary bypass grafting through much smaller incisions, avoiding the traditional sternotomy (splitting of the breastbone).
• Minimally Invasive – Hybrid Coronary Revascularization Surgery (MIHCR): A combined, state-of-the-art approach that pairs minimally invasive bypass surgery (often using robotic assistance) with catheter-based stenting to optimize blood flow restoration while keeping recovery time minimal.

Advantages of Robotic & Minimally Invasive Approaches:

• No sternal saw required (avoids large chest scars)
• Better cosmesis (smaller, less noticeable incisions)
• Reduced surgical stress and minimal blood loss
• Lower risk of post-surgical complications and wound infections
• Less post-operative pain
• Adherence to ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) protocols
• Significantly shorter hospital stays and faster return to normal activities
