Our heart valve treatments

We offer a wide range of advanced, minimally invasive treatments for heart valve repair and replacement, including:

  • keyhole heart surgery – smaller incisions and quicker recovery, with a reduced risk of complications compared to open-heart surgery
  • TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation) – a minimally invasive aortic valve replacement procedure, often suitable for patients who cannot undergo traditional surgery, such as older patients
  • MitraClip – a minimally invasive treatment for mitral valve regurgitation, improving valve function without the need for open-heart surgery
  • TriClip – a catheter-based solution for tricuspid valve regurgitation

To support accurate and timely diagnosis of heart valve disease, we provide advanced investigations, including cardiac MRI, CT coronary angiography, and echocardiograms.

Where required, our specialists can also perform traditional open-heart surgical valve repair and replacement procedures, tailoring treatment to your personal needs.
