Cardiovascular Surgery

Cardiovascular Surgery

Cardiovascular surgery procedures are among the most critical and complex medical interventions, requiring high precision, multidisciplinary expertise, and advanced hospital facilities. Easy Med Trip collaborates with top heart centers in Iran to provide comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic services in cardiovascular care for international patients.

Thanks to experienced surgeons, cutting-edge technology, and significantly lower cardiovascular surgery costs compared to many countries in the region, Iran has emerged as a leading destination for medical tourism in the field of cardiac and vascular surgeries.

Specialized Cardiovascular Surgery Procedures at Easy Med Trip

Based on clinical assessments, patients are referred to the most suitable treatment approach, coordinated by cardiologists, vascular surgeons, and intensive care teams:

  • Aortic surgery: Treating aneurysms, ruptures, or dilation of the aorta through open or minimally invasive procedures.
  • Heart valve surgery: Includes repair or replacement of defective valves (like mitral or aortic) using mechanical or biological prostheses.
  • Coronary artery disease treatment: Ranges from traditional open-heart bypass to modern cardiac procedures and tests like angioplasty and intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for complex arterial blockages.
  • Pediatric heart surgery: Correcting congenital defects such as ventricular septal defects or valve disorders in infants and children under the care of pediatric cardiothoracic specialists.

     

Minimally invasive heart surgery: Ideal for patients seeking less scarring and shorter hospital stays. These minor heart surgery types utilize advanced tools and significantly reduce recovery time.

Advanced Diagnostics for Heart Diseases

Easy MedTrip ensures access to the most sophisticated, minimally invasive diagnostic tools for international patients. Tests such as echocardiography, treadmill stress test, CT-angiography, coronary angiography, cardiac MRI, and heart rhythm monitoring are performed at accredited heart centers in Iran. After evaluation, our expert team recommends the most effective treatment plan.

Laser Heart Surgery: Innovation for Safer Outcomes

One of the fastest-growing technologies in treating certain cardiac conditions is laser-assisted surgery. Laser procedures or intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) are used for patients with heavily calcified arterial blockages. These methods deliver shockwaves to safely break up calcium plaques without damaging surrounding tissues. Being less invasive than open surgery, they offer quicker recovery and lower risk.

Diamond Drill Intravascular Lithotripsy

This innovative technology is ideal for patients who are high-risk candidates for open-heart surgery. Without proper intervention, such patients face the threat of serious cardiac or cerebral events. Using a special diamond-tipped rotating drill, this method safely removes calcified plaques without open surgery, enhancing stent success rates and often eliminating the need for open-heart procedures altogether.

Open vs. Closed Heart Surgery: Key Differences

The choice between open-heart surgery and less invasive techniques depends on the location, severity, and type of heart disease. Open surgery is typically required for valve replacement, coronary bypass, or heart transplants. In contrast, closed procedures such as angiography, angioplasty, or minimally invasive valve repairs are done through small incisions or peripheral arteries. Easy Med Trip’s medical team evaluates your condition to recommend the best approach.

Life Expectancy After Open-Heart Surgery

A common concern among patients is their future health and quality of life after heart surgery. The good news: life expectancy after cardiovascular surgery can improve significantly—especially with proper follow-up, lifestyle changes, and careful control of risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and cholesterol.

At Easy Med Trip, our commitment goes beyond the operating room. We provide continuous postoperative follow-up, nutritional guidance, and clinical evaluations to help you achieve full, lasting recovery.

Is Cardiovascular Surgery Dangerous?

Any heart surgery involves a degree of risk due to the vital nature of the organ. However, by choosing a skilled surgeon, a reputable hospital, and following pre- and post-operative care, these risks can be greatly minimized. Easy Med Trip ensures safety-focused care to support successful outcomes.
