Heart Valve Repair Surgery Introduction
Heart valve repair surgery is done to fix one or more of the heart’s valves that are not working properly. It helps restore normal blood flow by repairing damaged or faulty valve tissue. This surgery is often chosen over valve replacement when the natural valve can be preserved.
Precision Repair: Techniques in Heart Valve Surgery
Heart valve repair is typically performed through open-heart surgery or minimally invasive methods, depending on the patient’s condition. Surgeons may use specialized instruments such as annuloplasty rings, clips, or patches to reshape or support the valve. Common procedures include tightening the valve opening or repairing flaps (leaflets) that do not close properly. In minimally invasive approaches, small incisions and robotic tools reduce recovery time. The heart-lung machine is often used to take over circulation while the heart is still during the procedure. This surgery helps the heart pump blood more efficiently and can prevent long-term damage.
Why it’s done?
- To treat valve regurgitation (leaky valve causing blood to flow backward).
- To correct valve stenosis (narrowed valve restricting blood flow).
- To relieve symptoms like fatigue, shortness of breath, and chest pain.
- To prevent heart failure or reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death.
- To repair congenital valve defects or damage from infection (endocarditis).
