Heart Valve Surgery

Understanding Heart Valve Replacement

Heart valve replacement surgery helps treat valves that are damaged or diseased and not functioning properly. These procedures aim to restore blood flow and support better heart function, which may improve daily quality of life.
Heart Valve Surgery

When Is Heart Valve Surgery Considered?

  • Severe aortic stenosis restricting blood flow from the heart
  • Mitral regurgitation causing blood leakage backward
  • Tricuspid valve disease affecting right heart function
  • Congenital valve abnormalities requiring correction
  • Valve damage from infection, aging, or heart attack
Aortic Valve Replacement

Treatment for diseased aortic valves using biological or mechanical prosthetic valves, chosen according to patient needs.

Mitral Valve Surgery

Repair or replacement procedures to restore valve function and improve blood circulation.

Better Heart Function

Supports improved circulation, which may help relieve symptoms and enhance quality of life for many patients.

Minimally Invasive Approaches

Techniques such as TAVR or robotic-assisted procedures may be recommended for suitable patients to support recovery.

*Treatment options vary for each patient and are advised only after a full medical evaluation.*

Heart Valve Replacement Procedures

We provide a range of heart valve replacement and repair surgeries using modern techniques and prosthetic valves. Our cardiac surgeons perform aortic, mitral, and multi-valve procedures, customized to each patient's condition.
Aortic Valve Replacement (AVR)

Surgery to replace a diseased aortic valve with a biological or mechanical valve to support healthy blood flow.

Duration: 3–5 hours
Recovery: 4–8 weeks
Possible Benefits:
  • Helps restore normal blood flow
  • Aims to improve heart efficiency
  • May reduce related symptoms
Typically Considered For:

Severe aortic stenosis or regurgitation

Double Valve Replacement (DVR)

Replacement of two valves, usually aortic and mitral, for patients with complex multi-valve disease.

Duration: 4–6 hours
Recovery: 6–10 weeks
Possible Benefits:
  • Treats multiple valve conditions in one surgery
  • Reduces need for separate procedures
  • Comprehensive heart function support
Typically Considered For:

Patients with more than one severely affected valve

Mitral Valve Replacement (MVR)

Replacement or repair of the mitral valve to help correct regurgitation or stenosis and support better heart function.

Duration: 2–5 hours
Recovery: 4–6 weeks
Possible Benefits:
  • Helps reduce mitral regurgitation
  • Aims to restore efficient blood flow
  • May ease heart failure symptoms
Typically Considered For:

Severe mitral stenosis or regurgitation

Common Questions on Heart Valve Replacement

Valve replacement surgery usually takes between 3 to 5 hours, depending on the type of valve and the patient’s condition.

Risks may include infection, bleeding, irregular heartbeat, or blood clots. With proper post-operative care and monitoring, most patients recover well.

Most patients stay for about 5 to 10 days, depending on their recovery speed and overall health condition.

Light activities can usually be resumed within a few weeks, while full recovery and return to normal activities may take 6 to 12 weeks.

Yes. Many patients require blood thinners, medications to protect the heart, and sometimes antibiotics before certain procedures. Your doctor will tailor the plan to your needs.

Mechanical valves can last for decades but usually require lifelong blood thinners. Bioprosthetic (tissue) valves typically last 10–20 years and may need replacement later.

A heart-healthy diet, regular exercise (as advised by your doctor), stress management, avoiding smoking, and following your medication plan are key for long-term health.
