Advanced Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery (CTVS) Care for Comprehensive Heart Treatment

At ShardaCare – Healthcity, Greater Noida, the Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery (CTVS) department provides specialised surgical care for conditions affecting the heart, chest, and blood vessels.

Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery (CTVS) involves surgical procedures for managing complex cardiovascular conditions. Our CTVS specialists work closely with cardiologists, cardiac anaesthesiologists, and critical care teams to provide coordinated care throughout diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.

The CTVS team collaborates with specialists from Non Invasive Cardiology, Interventional Cardiology, and Cardiac Anaesthesia to develop personalised treatment plans based on each patient’s condition and clinical requirements.

What is Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery (CTVS)?

Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery (CTVS) is a specialised surgical field that focuses on the diagnosis and surgical management of conditions affecting:

• The heart

• Major blood vessels

• Chest structures

• Circulatory system

A Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgeon evaluates patients and recommends surgical treatment options based on factors such as the type of condition, severity, overall health status, and individual treatment needs.

Role of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery in Heart Care

CTVS plays an important role in managing conditions where surgical intervention may be required. Surgical decisions are made after detailed assessment and discussion with the multidisciplinary cardiac team.

CTVS procedures may help in:

• Treating blocked or narrowed heart arteries

• Managing heart valve conditions

• Repairing certain structural heart problems

• Treating conditions affecting major blood vessels

• Managing complex cardiovascular conditions requiring surgery

The recommended treatment approach depends on individual patient evaluation.

These evaluations help doctors understand heart function, identify cardiovascular conditions, and determine suitable treatment options.

Interventional Cardiology focuses on minimally invasive catheter-based procedures used to diagnose and treat selected cardiovascular conditions.

Interventional Cardiologists work closely with CTVS specialists when patients require further evaluation or surgical treatment planning.
