Cardiac Surgeon

Cardiac surgery is the medical specialty focused on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of heart and major vessel diseases. When medical therapy or minimally invasive procedures are no longer sufficient, cardiac surgical interventions become essential to save lives and improve quality of life.

Importance of a Cardiac Surgery Consultation

A cardiac surgery consultation evaluates patients with complex cardiovascular conditions and determines whether surgery is required. During the consultation, the following are discussed:

• the patient’s clinical condition and medical history;
• results of investigations (echocardiography, coronary angiography, cardiac CT, cardiac MRI);
• available treatment options and the risks associated with each.

This consultation is an important moment for patients and their families, providing clear and realistic information about next steps, benefits, and risks of surgery.

What a Cardiac Surgery Consultation at CardioPrima Includes

• Detailed review of existing investigations (imaging, tests, cardiology assessments).
• Discussion with the patient and family: explanation of the condition and treatment options.
• Determination of surgical indication: when and why surgery is necessary.
• Patient preparation: preoperative recommendations and postoperative care planning.

Who Should Seek a Cardiac Surgery Consultation

• Patients with advanced coronary artery disease requiring coronary bypass surgery.
• Individuals with heart valve diseases (stenosis, insufficiency) requiring surgical repair or replacement.
• Patients with aortic aneurysms or other major vascular conditions.
• Individuals with congenital heart diseases requiring surgical correction.
