About the clinic
Ventricular septal defect (VSD) treatment at Memorial Antalya Hospital in Turkey includes surgical and non-surgical options to close the hole between heart chambers. A cardiologist consultation may cost around $150, while an MRI of one area is around $500 and Doppler sonography typically runs $700. This JCI-accredited facility serves 1,000,000+ patients every year and was the first private hospital in Turkey licensed for liver and kidney transplants.
Cardiac diagnostics and assessment
The hospital provides a full range of tests for both adults and children to evaluate heart defects. Specialists use fetal echocardiography to detect congenital heart disease during pregnancy. For older patients, the clinic offers 2D Doppler and color Doppler echocardiography to visualize blood flow through the septal defect. Additional diagnostic tools include:
- Consultation with a cardiologist costs around $150.
- Lab tests range from $200 to $400.
- Comprehensive cardiovascular diagnosis is around $350.
- Imaging services including MRI of one area for $500 and Doppler sonography for $700.
- Advanced monitoring like Holter monitoring, event recorders, and the tilt-table test.
- Cardiac catheterization (angiography) to measure pressure and oxygen levels in heart chambers.
Treatment and surgical methods
The cardiovascular surgery department provides several techniques to repair VSD based on the size and location of the defect. Surgeons perform definitive repair using open-heart surgery to close the hole. For patients who qualify, the clinic offers robotic heart surgery for higher precision and minimally invasive cardiac surgery using small incisions. These methods help shorten the recovery period compared to traditional surgery.
For specific congenital heart defects, the pediatric cardiology team uses transcatheter VSD closure. This is a catheter-based correction that fixes the heart-wall hole without open surgery. The interventional cardiology team inserts a device through a thin tube to seal the opening, avoiding the need for a large chest incision.
