Advanced imaging is used to plan treatment. Available options include:
- MRI scan of one area to assess heart structure.
- CT scan for detailed anatomical views.
- Coronary angiography, which costs around $1,250-2,000, to evaluate blood vessels.
These tests help the surgical team understand the defect's exact size and location.
Surgical Treatment for VSD
The primary treatment is open-heart surgery to close the hole. The hospital offers two main surgical packages. Both are performed by Associate Professor Mustafa Kemal Avsar.
Prof. Avsar has over 17 years of cardiothoracic surgery experience. He heads the Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery unit. His specialization is in congenital heart defects like VSD.
Treatment options include:
- Total correction surgery. This is the standard surgical closure of the defect. The package typically runs $16,280-18,000. It covers the operation, all hospital fees, and pre-operative tests. Patients stay 7 to 20 days in a standard room with three daily meals.
- Total correction + pulmonary arterioplasty. This dual procedure costs around $20,000. It repairs the VSD and reconstructs the pulmonary artery in one session. The package includes 7 days in the hospital and 2 days in the ICU.
Both packages include surgeon and anesthesiologist fees. Nursing care and procedure medications are also covered. The hospital has a 9-operating-room complex and a dedicated pediatric unit.
Hospital Stay and Recovery
Recovery happens at the JCI-accredited Emsey Hospital. An uncomplicated case may allow for same-day discharge after recovery. For families needing extended accommodation, the nearby Emin Residence is available.
