Areas of Expertise and Treatments

Heart Transplant Surgery

Heart transplantation is an advanced treatment option for carefully selected patients with severe end-stage heart failure when appropriate medical and surgical therapies are no longer sufficient. Dr. Sanjeevkumar S Jadhav has specialised training and extensive experience in heart transplantation.

Lung Transplant Surgery

Lung transplantation may be considered for selected patients with advanced irreversible lung disease. Dr. Jadhav has specialist fellowship training in heart and lung transplantation and experience managing complex transplant patients.

Combined Heart-Lung Transplantation

Combined heart-lung transplantation is an advanced procedure used in carefully selected patients who have severe irreversible disease affecting both the heart and lungs.

Beating Heart Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Beating heart CABG is performed without routinely stopping the heart and without conventional cardiopulmonary bypass in suitable patients. Dr. Jadhav has particular expertise in beating heart bypass surgery.

Minimally Invasive Heart Bypass Surgery

Minimally invasive coronary bypass surgery uses smaller surgical approaches for selected patients requiring coronary revascularisation and may reduce the extent of chest wall disruption compared with conventional surgery.

Heart Valve Surgery

Heart valve surgery includes repair or replacement of diseased heart valves affected by narrowing, leakage or structural abnormalities. Dr. Jadhav's advanced training included valve repair and complex cardiac surgical procedures.

Congenital Heart Surgery

Congenital heart surgery treats structural cardiac abnormalities present from birth. Dr. Jadhav underwent specialist training in both adult and paediatric cardiac surgery during his fellowship experience in Australia.

Aortic Aneurysm Surgery

Aortic aneurysm surgery may involve repair or replacement of a weakened or enlarged portion of the aorta when intervention is required to reduce the risk of rupture or other serious complications.

Endovascular Aortic Surgery

Endovascular aortic procedures use catheter-based techniques to manage selected diseases of the aorta and may provide a less invasive treatment option for appropriate patients.

Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS)

Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery uses minimally invasive thoracoscopic techniques to perform selected operations involving the lungs and other structures within the chest.

Lung Cancer Surgery

Lung cancer surgery is considered for selected patients based on tumour type, location, stage, lung function and overall medical condition, and may involve minimally invasive or open thoracic surgical techniques.

Peripheral Vascular Surgery

Peripheral vascular surgery involves treatment of arterial and venous conditions affecting blood circulation outside the heart, including significant narrowing or blockage of limb arteries.

Limb Bypass Surgery

Limb bypass surgery creates an alternative pathway around a blocked peripheral artery to improve blood flow to the affected limb in appropriately selected patients.

ECMO Support and Management

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation provides temporary advanced circulatory or respiratory support in critically ill patients. Dr. Jadhav has undergone specialised training in ECMO as part of his heart and lung transplant experience.
