Structural Heart and Valve Interventions

Structural Heart & Valve Interventions

Structural heart diseases involve defects or abnormalities in the heart’s valves, walls, or chambers that can severely affect heart function. Dr. Basavaraj Utagi, an AIIMS-trained cardiologist with over 13 years of experience, specializes in minimally invasive structural heart and valve interventions that offer life-changing solutions without the need for open-heart surgery.

These advanced, catheter-based treatments are performed in a state-of-the-art cardiac cath lab, ensuring precision, safety, and faster recovery.

Key Structural Interventions Offered:

  • Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) Closure
    Minimally invasive repair of holes in the heart’s septum to prevent complications like stroke or heart failure.

  • Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) Closure
    Catheter-based sealing of an abnormal connection between two heart vessels that usually closes after birth.

  • Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR)
    A revolutionary procedure for high-risk patients with severe aortic valve narrowing (aortic stenosis), replacing the valve without open surgery.

Benefits of Structural Interventions:

  • Shorter hospital stay and faster recovery

  • No large surgical incisions

  • Ideal for elderly or high-risk patients

  • Long-lasting relief from breathlessness, fatigue, and heart murmurs
