Structural Interventional Cardiology

• Over the last 10 years, an ever increasing number of cardiac defects can be corrected through procedures through the blood vessels (called an endovascular approach)
• This means these procedures can be performed without the need for open heart surgery, leading to a much quicker recovery from the procedure.

These conditions include

• The implantation of heart valves
• The correction of leaky (or regurgitating) valves
• The closure of abnormal connections between heart chambers
• The occlusion of parts of the heart which can cause blood clot formation

• Dr Nay Htun is and expert in the performance of all the available structural procedures including valve implantation (TAVI).
