Open-Heart Surgery at Yashoda Heart Institute
Deposition of fatty materials on the arterial walls leads to obstruction of normal blood flow, which is commonly seen in patients who have arteriosclerotic disease, also known as coronary artery disease (CAD). Performing open heart surgery in such individuals helps in restoring normal blood flow. In open-heart surgery, the surgeon makes a large incision in the chest to open the rib cage, though the heart itself may not be directly exposed. While the cardiothoracic surgeons address the issue, the patient is connected to a heart-lung bypass machine, which functions as an artificial heart during the procedure.
