Cardiology

The Section of Cardiology provides patients with the latest advances in care for disorders of the heart, arteries, veins and lymphatic vessels.

Under the Section of Cardiology is the Interventional Cardiology, which deals specifically with the catheter-based treatment of structural heart diseases. Our highly trained interventional cardiologists can perform the following procedures:

• Angioplasty (PTCA, Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty) – for coronary atherosclerosis.
• Valvuloplasty – dilation of narrowed cardiac valves (usually mitral, aortic or pulmonary).
• Procedures for congenital heart disease – insertion of occluders for ventricular or atrial septal defects, occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus, angioplasty of great vessels
• Emergency angioplasty and stenting of occluded coronary vessels in the setting of acute myocardial infarction.

We also provide comprehensive Critical Care for patients with serious cardiovascular disorders and complications.
