A cardiothoracic surgeon treats cardiac and thoracic diseases through surgery including open heart surgeries, coronary arterial surgeries, heart valve change, aorta surgeries, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, lung tumors, chest injuries and esophagus surgeries.
Coronary artery bypass surgery using a catheter is a common procedure in heart surgery to improve blood flow to the heart. It is a safe procedure, but like any surgery, some complications can occur, such as bleeding or damage of blood vessels from the catheter.
Open-heart surgery takes about 3-6 hours, depending on the patient's condition, and the doctor completely anaesthetises the patient during the procedure.
The success rate of the operation reaches 98% of cases, but some complications may occur, including bleeding, infection, clots, and irregular heartbeat in some patients, but this improves with time, and the patient may need a pacemaker.
