Dr Ranjit Jagtap Clinic: What is Coarctation Of The Aorta Repair Surgery and hiow it is treated?

  The Ram Mangal Heart Foundation founded by Dr Ranjit Jagtap is regarded for doing the best cardiac procedures, and one of them is coarctation of the aorta repair. Coarctation of the Aorta occurs when a portion of the aorta is extremely thin. The design resembles an hourglass timepiece. It can lead to problems like high blood pressure over time. They use a cut between the ribs on the left side of the chest to fix this. What Is Aortic Coarctation and How Does It Happen? Aortic coarctation is a constriction of the aorta. It is the primary blood conduit that carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart's left ventricle to all of the body's organs. As the aorta arches inferiorly toward the chest and belly, coarctation most usually happens in a small stretch of the aorta just beyond where the arteries supplying the head and arms take off. The ductus arteriosus is a blood artery in a foetus that contains unique tissue in its wall that causes it to close in the first hours or da...

Atrial Septal Defect Surgery: repair primum, sinus venosus and coronary sinus atrial defects

  The Ram Mangal Heat Foundation founded by Dr Ranjit Jagtap has been working in the cardiac area for many years, and Atrial Septal Defect Surgery is part of that area. The Atrial Septum is a wall that separates the heart's left and right atria (upper chambers). An Atrial Septal Defect is a hole in that wall (ASD). Pure and impure blood can mix together in the presence of this abnormality, causing medical difficulties and arrhythmias. There is a procedure to close an ASD without the need for open-heart surgery. The surgeon begins by making a small cut in the groyne. The surgeon next threads a wire through a blood vessel that leads to the heart. On the right and left sides of the septum, they implant two small devices which are in the shape of umbrella. These two devices are connected and work together to close the hole in the heart. ASD can also be treated with open-heart surgery. During this procedure they stitch shut the septum. A patch is another option for covering the hol...
