Heart surgery in Dombivli is a medical procedure that includes
diagnosis, treatment or intervention of diseases of the heart muscle. The
coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery involves rerouting of blood
around diseased or blocked arteries to improve blood supply to the heart.
What is Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Surgery (CABG)?
Coronary artery bypass grafting
surgery, also known as CABG or coronary bypass surgery, is a cardiac surgical
procedure where a healthy blood vessel from another part of the body
"bypasses" blocked arteries of the heart. A healthy artery or vein
from another part of the body (known as a "graft") is connected to
the coronary artery beyond the blockage, allowing blood to flow around the
blockage to your heart muscle.
Today CABG surgery has become an effective treatment for several different conditions:
* coronary artery disease (CAD), in
which the arteries that supply blood to the heart become narrow and hardened,
usually by atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a condition where fatty deposits
build up on the inner lining of the coronary arteries, causing them to narrow.
* angina pectoris , or chest pain that
occurs when the heart does not get enough oxygen-rich blood
* Heart attack, also called myocardial
infarction, in which a coronary artery becomes blocked by a blood clot or fatty
deposits. A heart attack can cause permanent damage to your heart if it is not
treated quickly.
A CABG surgery is usually done when
other treatments such as medicines and lifestyle changes do not work or if you
have a severe blockage in one or more of your heart's arteries.
Who needs Coronary Arteries Bypass
Grafting Surgery?
Coronary artery bypass Heart surgery in Dombivli may be recommended for people who:
* Have severely blocked coronary arteries that have caused a heart attack or that continue to cause angina
* Have a serious abnormal heart rhythm
that cannot be controlled by medicine or other treatments. This is called
arrhythmia.
* Are at risk for a future heart attack because of the number of blocked coronary arteries and the amount of heart damage already suffered from previous attacks.
