Advanced Treatments at Apollo Valve Clinic

Balloon Valvuloplasty

Balloon valvuloplasty (BAV) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses cardiac catheterization to treat narrowed heart valves by expanding them with a balloon. It is commonly used for conditions like pulmonary valve stenosis.

Benefits of Balloon Valvuloplasty:

Improves blood flow
Quick recovery

MitraClip

The MitraClip is a small device used to treat mitral valve leakage without open-heart surgery. It effectively addresses mitral valve regurgitation, where the valve does not close properly, causing blood to leak back into the heart chamber.

Benefits of MitraClip:

TAVI/TAVR

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) or Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) offers a modern approach to treating aortic valve stenosis without open-heart surgery. The procedure involves inserting a new valve via a catheter through the groin and placing it within the existing valve.

Benefits of TAVI/TAVR:

Minimally invasive
Accelerated recovery
Brief hospitalization
Reduced pain and enhanced comfort
Lower risk of complications

Robot-Assisted Valve Repair/Replacement

Robot-assisted valve repair/replacement is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive technique. Surgeons use a robotic system with specialized tools and a camera through small incisions, providing enhanced precision and often recommended for younger, active patients seeking a quicker recovery.

Benefits of Robotic Surgery:

Shorter hospitalization
Reduced post-surgery pain and discomfort
Faster recovery
Smaller incisions
Less blood loss and fewer transfusions

FAQ’s

What are the common symptoms of aortic valve stenosis?

Common symptoms of aortic valve stenosis include chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, lightheadedness, an irregular heartbeat, dizziness, fainting, and leg swelling. If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention.

What is cardiac catheterisation?

Cardiac catheterisation involves inserting catheters into a blood vessel with local anaesthesia and guiding them to the heart using X-rays. This procedure is used to evaluate heart valve diseases, measure blood flows and pressures in different chambers of the heart, and treat congenital conditions.
