As heart diseases become increasingly prevalent, the necessity for cardiac surgeries rises as well.
Although heart surgery has become highly standardised and successful, the conventional approach often deters patients due to the requirement of fully cutting open the breastbone, resulting in lengthy scars.
To alleviate this concern, Kauvery Hospital offers Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS) in Bangalore, also known as "keyhole" heart surgery, as part of its advanced cardiac invasive procedures.
You need not worry about complications like transfusion requirements as there is very less bleeding.
Post surgical scars are minimal, as a result you don’t feel you have had a major procedure, cosmetically.
You go back home early, that reduces risk of hospital induced infections and keeps hospital bills within affordable limits.
You hardly feel any pain compared to conventional methods.
Your lung function remains intact, while your heart gets healed.
You get well and back on track way too fast.
MICS stands for Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery.
It's a surgical approach used in cardiac procedures where the surgeon performs operations on the heart through small incisions in the chest, rather than traditional open-heart surgery that requires a large incision through the breastbone.
At Kauvery, MICS offers several advantages including reduced pain, less blood loss, faster recovery, and smaller scars compared to traditional surgery.
Our expert surgeons ensure customised MICS procedures, depending on the individual requirements of every patient. At Kauvery, you will get the following MICS options:
A smaller incision is made in the sternum, providing access to the heart while reducing trauma compared to traditional sternotomy.
Surgery performed through a small incision on the side of the chest, avoiding the need to cut through the breastbone.
Utilises robotic technology to enhance precision and control during minimally invasive cardiac procedures.
Involves the use of a tiny camera and instruments inserted through small incisions to perform Thoracic surgery while visualizing the surgical field on a monitor.
Combines minimally invasive surgical techniques with other procedures like catheter-based interventions for comprehensive treatment of complex cardiac conditions.
Minimally invasive procedures involving catheters to repair or replace heart valves without the need for open-heart surgery.
Depending on your condition, your doctor might suggest Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS). Here are the symptoms that indicate you might need MICS:
Your doctor may recommend MICS for you in case you have the following conditions:
Repairing or replacing damaged heart valves to restore proper blood flow.
Surgical procedures involving the aorta, such as repairing aneurysms or dissections.
Surgery to create new routes for blood flow to bypass blocked or narrowed coronary arteries.
Abnormal growths or masses within the heart tissue.
Structural abnormalities present at birth affecting the heart's structure and function.
Irregular heartbeats or abnormal heart rhythms.
At Kauvery Hospital, our commitment to advancing cardiac care is demonstrated by our cutting-edge Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS) techniques. Using the latest technology, our expert team offers patients safer, more effective, and less invasive treatment options for various cardiac conditions.
Robotic technology increases precision and accuracy in cardiac procedures.
Robotic-assisted cardiac surgery at Kauvery Hospital uses advanced robotic systems to perform complex heart procedures with unprecedented precision.
This approach minimises the need for large incisions, resulting in less trauma to the body and quicker recovery times. The robotic system translates the surgeon's movements into smaller, more precise actions using miniaturised instruments, improving accuracy and reducing the risk of complications.
Patients benefit from shorter hospital stays, reduced pain, and faster return to daily activities.
Robotic-assisted techniques are particularly effective for mitral valve repairs, coronary artery bypass grafting, and other intricate cardiac surgeries, providing a high degree of safety and efficiency.
VATS provides a minimally invasive alternative for thoracic surgeries.
Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) at Kauvery Hospital is a state-of-the-art technique used for various thoracic and cardiac procedures.
This minimally invasive method involves using a thoracoscope – a thin tube with a camera – inserted through small incisions in the chest. The thoracoscope provides a high-definition view of the heart and surrounding structures, allowing surgeons to perform complex procedures without needing large, open-chest surgery.
VATS significantly reduces postoperative pain, lowers the risk of infection, and accelerates the healing process.
It's an ideal choice for procedures like lobectomies, mediastinal tumour excisions, and certain types of cardiac surgeries, offering patients a safer and more comfortable surgical experience.
This kind of surgery combines traditional and minimally invasive techniques for the best outcomes.
Hybrid cardiac surgery at Kauvery Hospital combines the benefits of traditional open-heart surgery and minimally invasive techniques to treat complex cardiac conditions.
This integrated approach allows surgeons to perform simultaneous procedures, such as combining catheter-based interventions with surgical repairs, in a single operation.
Hybrid surgeries are conducted in specially equipped operating rooms that facilitate both surgical and interventional procedures. This method offers significant advantages, including reduced operative times, fewer complications, and enhanced patient recovery.
It is particularly beneficial for patients requiring multiple cardiac interventions, as it minimises the need for separate surgeries and improves overall treatment outcomes.
