Aortic Valve Replacement

Aortic valve replacement is a surgical procedure where a damaged or diseased aortic valve in the heart is replaced with a new valve. The aortic valve helps regulate blood flow from the heart to the rest of the body. When it doesn’t function properly, it can lead to health issues like heart failure. The surgery can be done through traditional open-heart surgery or minimally invasive techniques. Patients usually experience relief from symptoms such as shortness of breath and fatigue, improving their quality of life and overall heart function.
