Our Heart Valve Replacement Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Heart Valve Replacement, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Surgery for acquired valvular heart disease

This procedure addresses issues in heart valves caused by disease, damage, or degeneration, restoring proper blood flow and heart function.

Pros: Offers a permanent solution for severe valve disease. High success rate with 95% improvement in symptoms post-surgery.

Cons: Involves open heart surgery, leading to longer recovery times. Risk of complications like bleeding or infection in 10% of patients.

Effectiveness: 90% success rate in restoring normal heart function.

Duration: 3-6 hours.

Recovery: 6-12 weeks.

Best for: Severe valve stenosis or regurgitation affecting aortic or mitral valves.

Plastic surgery for cardiac valve

This procedure focuses on repairing or modifying existing heart valves to improve function and blood flow.

Pros: Offers a less invasive approach compared to open heart surgery with a quicker recovery time. Success rates of over 85% make it a reliable option for many patients.

Cons: May not be suitable for severely damaged valves where replacement is necessary. Requires specialized equipment and expertise, limiting availability in some areas.

Effectiveness: Success rate of 85% to 90% in improving valve function.

Duration: 2 to 4 hours.

Recovery: 1 to 2 weeks.

Best for: Patients with moderate valve disease seeking improved valve function without full replacement.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI)

A minimally invasive procedure to replace a narrowed aortic valve that fails to open properly.

Pros: Shorter recovery time compared to open heart surgery. Success rate of 95%, making it a reliable option for high-risk patients.
