Cardiovascular surgery
In recent years, cardiovascular surgery has rapidly transformed thanks to technological changes. At the ABC Cardiovascular Center, diseases of the heart, lungs, and chest are diagnosed and surgically treated.
Some of the frequent procedures we perform at the Cardiovascular Center are:
Coronary bypass
Coronary artery bypass surgery redirects blood out of a partially or completely blocked area of an artery in the heart to improve blood flow to the heart muscle. The procedure involves taking a healthy blood vessel from a leg, arm, or chest and attaching it to the outside of the blocked arteries in the heart.
Valve repair and
replacement surgery
During surgery to repair or replace a valve, the sternum is divided, the heart is stopped, and blood is diverted to a heart-lung machine. Because the heart or aorta must be opened, heart valve surgery is an open-heart procedure.
Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy and Minimally Invasive PTE for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
It is an operation that removes clotted blood from the pulmonary arteries, which supply blood to the lungs. Pulmonary thromboendarterectomy is the treatment of choice for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.
At the Cardiovascular Center we offer you a wide range of prevention, diagnosis, timely treatment and follow-up services to take care of your heart and that of your loved ones
Heart transplantation
A heart transplant is an operation in which a diseased, weakened heart is replaced with a healthier heart from a donor. Heart transplantation is a treatment that is generally reserved for people whose condition has not improved enough with medications or other surgeries.
Although heart transplantation is a major operation, your chances of survival are high if you receive proper follow-up care. Heart transplants are done when other treatments for heart problems have not worked and heart failure occurs.

Heart transplants are done when other treatments for heart problems have not worked and heart failure occurs.
In adults, heart failure occurs from the following conditions:
- Weakening of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathy)
- Coronary artery disease
- Heart valve disease
- Any heart problem from birth (congenital heart defect)
- Recurrent and dangerous abnormal heart rhythms (ventricular arrhythmias) not controlled with other treatments
- Previous heart transplant failure
