Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG)
Restoring vital blood flow to your heart with world-class surgical precision.
Restore Heart Health with Expert CABG
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is a sophisticated surgical intervention designed to treat severe coronary artery disease. By creating a new pathway (bypass) around obstructed arteries, Dr. Chintan Mehta ensures the heart muscle receives an optimal supply of oxygenated blood. As a specialist at Wockhardt Hospital, Dr. Mehta employs precision techniques to ensure the highest standards of safety and long-term myocardial health.
Clinical Indications: When is CABG Necessary?
Surgery is typically recommended when blockages are too severe for stents or medication. Common indicators include:
- Severe chest pain (Angina)
- Extreme shortness of breath
- Main artery blockages
- Previous unsuccessful stent procedures
Surgical Approach
Dr. Mehta utilizes both traditional "on-pump" revascularization and advanced "off-pump" (beating heart) techniques. By prioritizing arterial grafts, such as the Internal Mammary Artery, he focuses on the patency of the bypass and the overall longevity of the patient’s cardiac health.
Key Benefits
Pain Relief
Substantial reduction or complete elimination of debilitating chest pain and chronic angina.
Better Function
Enhanced myocardial perfusion restores the heart's pumping efficiency for a more active life.
Life Longevity
Proactively reduces the risk of heart attacks and significantly extends life expectancy.
Recovery & Follow-up
Initial recovery involves a few days in the Cardiac ICU followed by a hospital stay of about 5-7 days. Dr. Mehta's team provides a comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation plan, including diet management and gradual exercise, to ensure you return to normal activities within 6 to 12 weeks.
Why Dr. Chintan Mehta?
With over 14 years of experience and thousands of successful heart surgeries, Dr. Mehta is recognized for his meticulous surgical technique and high success rates in complex multi-vessel bypass cases.
