Areas of Cardiac Surgery Expertise
Dr Malhotra performs a wide range of advanced heart procedures.
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)
CABG surgery is performed to treat severe coronary artery disease.
The procedure improves blood flow to the heart by bypassing blocked arteries using healthy blood vessels from other parts of the body.
This surgery is often recommended for patients with:
- multiple blocked coronary arteries
- severe chest pain (angina)
- high risk of heart attack
Heart Transplant and Advanced Heart Failure Surgery
For patients with end-stage heart failure, transplant or mechanical circulatory support may be required.
Dr Malhotra is experienced in procedures such as:
- Heart transplant surgery
- Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) implantation
LVAD devices help the heart pump blood and may be used as a bridge to transplant or long-term therapy.
Valve Replacement and Repair Surgery
Heart valves regulate blood flow through the heart.
When valves become damaged due to infection, degeneration, or congenital defects, surgical repair or replacement may be necessary.
Common valve procedures include:
- Mitral valve replacement (MVR)
- Aortic valve replacement (AVR)
- Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI)
Minimally Invasive and Robotic Cardiac Surgery
Modern cardiac surgery increasingly uses minimally invasive techniques.
Benefits may include:
- smaller surgical incisions
- reduced blood loss
- faster recovery
- shorter hospital stays
These techniques may be used for valve repair, bypass surgery, and selected congenital heart procedures.
