The operation was performed through a small incision between the ribs, 5-6 cm long, without the standard large sternum incision
The peculiarity of this operation is also that it was performed without stopping the heart. This technique is less traumatic for the patient, but requires a highly qualified medical team.
“After such an operation, there are practically no restrictions on physical activity, and the patient “gets on his feet” faster in the postoperative period.
Our patient is currently doing well and is preparing to be discharged from the hospital and return home.
I would like to note that in addition to coronary bypass surgery, we also perform plastic surgery and replacement of heart valves, remove heart tumors, etc., according to the minimally invasive technique,” said the head of the Center, Stepan Pavlyk.
