Coronary artery bypass grafting is a cardiac surgical procedure used to improve blood flow to the heart when coronary arteries are significantly narrowed or blocked.
Beating heart or off-pump cardiac surgery allows selected coronary bypass procedures to be performed without stopping the heart or using a heart-lung machine.
Open heart surgery may be required for complex conditions involving the coronary arteries, heart valves or other structural abnormalities of the heart.
Heart valve repair aims to restore the normal function of a damaged or diseased heart valve while preserving the patient's natural valve whenever clinically appropriate.
Valve replacement surgery is performed when a severely damaged heart valve cannot be adequately repaired and needs to be replaced with an artificial or biological valve.
Aortic aneurysm surgery is used to repair a weakened and enlarged section of the aorta and reduce the risk of serious complications such as rupture.
Aortic dissection is a serious condition in which the layers of the aortic wall separate. Surgical repair may be necessary to stabilize the aorta and restore blood flow.
Vascular surgery focuses on conditions affecting arteries and veins and may include surgical management of aneurysms, blockages and other blood vessel disorders.
Thoracic surgery involves surgical management of diseases affecting structures within the chest, including the lungs, chest wall and mediastinum.
VATS is a minimally invasive surgical approach that uses small incisions and a camera to perform selected procedures inside the chest.
Advanced heart failure surgery may be considered for selected patients whose symptoms cannot be adequately controlled with medication or less invasive treatment.
Heart-lung transplantation is a highly specialized procedure considered for selected patients with advanced combined heart and lung disease.
