The Procedure
The Procedure can be done either by the traditional open heart surgery or by the Minimally invasive surgery. Before the surgery, the patient will receive general anesthesia. This will make the patient asleep and pain-free during the entire procedure. Other than the aortic valve replacement surgery; aortic stenosis could be treated by:
- Percutaneous Aortic Balloon Valvotomy.
- Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation.
