Aortic Stenosis

What is Aortic Stenosis?

Aortic stenosis occurs when the aortic valve becomes narrowed, making it harder for the heart to pump blood effectively.

Common symptoms:

Breathlessness during activity
Chest discomfort or tightness
Fatigue or weakness
Dizziness or fainting spells
Reduced ability to exercise

Risk Factors

Causes of Aortic Valve Stenosis

Several structural, age-related, or underlying health conditions can contribute to the development of aortic valve narrowing.

Primary causes:

Age-related valve calcification
Congenital bicuspid valve
Previous rheumatic heart disease
Other underlying valve conditions

Early detection helps prevent long-term heart complications.

TAVI

What is TAVI?

TAVI is a minimally invasive procedure that replaces a narrowed aortic valve without conventional open-heart surgery.

New valve delivered through a catheter
Usually accessed through the blood vessel
Diseased valve remains in place
New valve restores blood flow
Performed by a specialised Heart Team

Learn How TAVI Works

How is TAVI or TAVR different from the standard valve replacement?

TAVI is a novel, (US) FDA Approved, technically advanced, and minimally invasive procedure, suitable for people with symptomatic aortic stenosis who are even low-risk or do not have the fitness to undergo standard valve replacement surgery.

TAVI

Minimally invasive catheter procedure
No chest opening
Usually shorter hospital stay
Faster initial recovery
Suitable for selected patients

Surgical Valve Replacement

Open-heart surgical procedure
Chest opening required
Longer hospital recovery
Longer overall recovery period
Appropriate for selected patients

The right treatment depends on your valve condition, age and overall health.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I think one of the best places for doing anything related heart treatment, the staff is polite and very caring to the patient, my dad and grandmother were both admitted here for their angioplasty it happened very smoothly. The Dr. Ankur, Dr. Kunal and Dr. Harshad they do not miss any problem or over look any patient and they are very much accurate with their success rate. The only small issue is the waiting room for the ppl who come with the patient is that it's uncomfortable to wait and there are not many washrooms for ppl who come with the patient, my experience was fabulous and tension free as they are very realistic and smooth regarding their procedure
