The specialists of the department have advanced experience in the field of aortic valve reconstruction or replacement. In the case of severe forms of stenosis, regurgitation, congenital aortic valve pathologies, aortic valve reconstruction is performed. Various methods (annuloplasty and valvuloplasty) are available for the restoration of heart valve functions. If there are indications for valve replacement, the department’s surgeons also have various surgical options, such as open surgery, minimally invasive surgery, and percutaneous aortic valve replacement. The combination of long experience of doctors and advanced medical technologies contributes to the patients’ rapid postoperative recovery and achievement of consistent treatment results.

The most successful treatment method for this disease is coronary artery bypass grafting, in which doctors restore the normal blood flow directing the bloodstream to bypass the clogged arteries with the help of shunts (vascular prostheses). Another therapeutic option is coronary angioplasty, in which a normal lumen of the vessel is restored using a catheter with an expanding balloon. To determine the optimal treatment method, a comprehensive diagnostics is carried out, the results of which are discussed with all the necessary specialists.
