CHF Surgical Procedures Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG): CABG is a common procedure for patients with CHF caused by coronary artery disease (CAD). During CABG, a surgeon creates new pathways for blood to flow to the heart muscle by bypassing blocked or narrowed arteries using grafts from other parts of the body. This restores blood flow, relieving symptoms and improving heart function . Valve Repair or Replacement: Dysfunction of heart valves, such as the mitral or aortic valve, can exacerbate CHF. Valve repair or replacement surgeries aim to restore proper valve function, either by repairing the existing valve or replacing it with a prosthetic valve. These procedures alleviate symptoms and prevent further deterioration of heart function . Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) Implantation: VADs are mechanical pumps implanted into the heart to assist with pumping blood to the rest of the body. In advanced CHF cases where the heart's pumping ability is severely compromised, VADs serve as a bridge to transplantation or as a long-term therapy option, improving quality of life and prolonging survival.

Heart Transplantation: For select patients with end-stage CHF refractory to other treatments, heart transplantation offers the possibility of a new lease on life. During this procedure, a diseased heart is replaced with a healthy donor heart, providing a functional and durable solution for severe CHF. Advancements in CHF Surgical Treatments: Recent advancements have significantly enhanced the safety, efficacy, and accessibility of CHF surgical treatments : - Minimally Invasive Techniques: Minimally invasive approaches, such as robot-assisted surgery and keyhole procedures, reduce surgical trauma, shorten recovery times, and minimize postoperative complications. - Advanced Imaging and Surgical Navigation: High-resolution imaging techniques and sophisticated surgical navigation systems enable precise surgical planning and execution, improving outcomes and minimizing risks.
