Underarm Heart Surgery

Underarm heart surgery refers to heart surgeries performed with small incisions under the armpit with minimally invasive surgery, without cutting the breastbone and any muscle. Operations such as heart valve surgeries, coronary bypass surgeries and closure of the heart hole can be performed with minimally invasive surgery. Here, the most appropriate surgical method is decided according to the condition of the patient and the heart problem. Underarm heart surgeries provide a faster and more comfortable recovery process than open heart surgeries in which the breastbone is cut. First of all, the risks of complications that may occur are reduced. In addition, the patient can lie in any position after the surgery, drive a car and do not have to move by protecting his chest. The patient has a better appearance aesthetically, since the chest is not split.
