Minimally Invasive & Open Heart
Understanding Tricuspid Valve Surgery
Tricuspid Valve Surgery is performed to repair or replace a damaged tricuspid valve, which controls blood flow between the right atrium and right ventricle. The procedure helps restore normal valve function, reduce symptoms, and prevent complications related to right-sided heart failure.
Minimally Invasive: Uses smaller incisions and advanced surgical techniques, resulting in less pain, faster recovery, and reduced scarring.
Open Heart: Traditional surgical approach recommended for complex tricuspid valve diseases or when multiple cardiac procedures are required.
Tricuspid valve surgery is recommended for severe tricuspid regurgitation (valve leakage), tricuspid stenosis (valve narrowing), congenital valve abnormalities, infective endocarditis, and valve dysfunction associated with other heart diseases.
Patients undergo a thorough cardiac evaluation before surgery. Depending on the condition, the valve may be repaired or replaced, followed by a monitored recovery period and cardiac rehabilitation to support long-term heart health.
Minimally Invasive: Smaller incisions, less blood loss, reduced pain, lower infection risk, shorter hospital stay, faster recovery, and improved cosmetic results.
Open Heart: Provides comprehensive treatment for complex valve disorders, ensuring durable repair or replacement and improved long-term heart function.
