Advanced Heart Valve Replacement Surgery
Heart valve replacement surgery is performed when one or more valves of the heart become severely damaged or diseased, affecting normal blood flow and heart function. This procedure restores efficient circulation and relieves symptoms caused by valve disorders.
Under the expert care of Dr. Ganesh Shivnani, valve replacement surgeries are performed using proven techniques with a strong focus on safety, precision, and long-term durability. Each patient is carefully evaluated to determine the most suitable valve type and surgical approach.
Types of Valve Replacement Surgery

- Mitral valve replacement for severe mitral valve disease
- Tricuspid and pulmonary valve replacement in selected cases
- Mechanical and biological valve options based on patient needs
When Is Valve Replacement Recommended?
Valve replacement surgery may be advised when symptoms such as breathlessness, fatigue, chest discomfort, or heart failure persist despite medication or less invasive treatments. Timely intervention helps prevent permanent heart damage.
Recovery & Long-Term Care
Recovery following valve replacement surgery involves structured ICU monitoring, step-down care, and guided rehabilitation. Long-term follow-up focuses on medication management, lifestyle modification, and routine valve assessment to ensure sustained heart health.
With expert surgical planning and comprehensive post-operative care, heart valve replacement surgery can significantly improve quality of life and long-term cardiac function.
