Types of Cardiac Surgery in India

The appropriate cardiac procedure depends on the patient’s diagnosis, age, medical history, test results, and overall health.

1. Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)

CABG surgery, commonly known as bypass surgery, is performed to improve blood flow to the heart muscle when coronary arteries are significantly narrowed or blocked.

Depending on the patient’s condition, surgeons may perform conventional CABG, off-pump/beating-heart CABG, minimally invasive procedures, or multi-vessel bypass surgery.

2. Heart Valve Surgery

Heart valve surgery may involve valve repair or valve replacement. Procedures can include:

  • Mitral valve repair or replacement
  • Aortic valve repair or replacement
  • Tricuspid valve repair or replacement
  • Double valve replacement
  • Complex valve procedures

The choice between repair and replacement depends on the type and severity of valve disease.

3. Congenital Heart Surgery

Children and adults with congenital heart defects may require corrective or palliative surgery. Procedures can include treatment for:
ASD | VSD | PDA | Tetralogy of Fallot | AVSD
Coarctation of the aorta
Transposition of the great arteries
Other complex congenital heart conditions
Specialized centres provide both pediatric and adult congenital cardiac surgery.

4. Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery

For selected patients, minimally invasive cardiac surgery may offer an alternative to conventional open surgery. Depending on the condition and hospital expertise, minimally invasive approaches can be used for selected coronary and valve procedures

5. Aortic Surgery

Cardiac surgery centres in India also manage certain diseases affecting the aorta, including aortic aneurysms and aortic dissection. Procedures may include aortic root or ascending aorta surgery and other complex aortic operations

6. Heart Transplantation

For selected patients with advanced heart failure or end-stage heart disease, heart transplantation may be considered when other treatment options are no longer appropriate. Availability depends on medical eligibility, transplant-centre facilities, and donor-organ requirements

Cost of Cardiac Surgery in India

The cost of cardiac surgery in India varies considerably depending on the type of surgery, hospital, surgeon, patient’s medical condition, room category, investigations, implants or prosthetic valves, ICU stay, and complications.

For example, CABG, valve replacement, congenital heart surgery, and complex aortic surgery have different treatment requirements and therefore different costs.

A personalized estimate should be obtained after medical evaluation rather than relying on a single advertised price
