Recently, Apollo Hospitals has achieved a remarkable breakthrough in the treatment of heart valve diseases by pioneering less invasive tailored Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) techniques.
This advancement aims to match patient-specific requirements for those suffering from severe Aortic Stenosis (AS), ultimately achieving the best outcomes.
Dr. Sengottuvelu, Interventional Cardiologist, Apollo Hospitals Chennai, said “Severe aortic stenosis is a debilitating condition that can drastically limit patients’ daily activities and quality of life. He also noted that the innovative tailored TAVI approach not only offers a less invasive solution but also significantly improves survival rates and quality of life for these patients.
“It is crucial to raise awareness about the symptoms and the importance of timely intervention, as untreated aortic stenosis can lead to life-threatening complications. With our advanced techniques and personalized care, we aim to empower more patients to receive the life-saving treatment they desperately need,” he added.
Dr. Yusuf, Senior Consultant Cardiothoracic Surgeon, Apollo Hospitals, Chennai, said, “Robotic cardiac surgery represents a transformative leap in heart surgery, offering patients a faster recovery, less pain, and fewer complications compared to traditional open surgery. With over 500 successful robotic procedures, we’ve seen first-hand how this technique allows patients, particularly younger ones, to return to their daily lives much sooner.
