Heart and Lung Transplant CVTS

Heart and Lung Transplant CVTS

Heart & Lung Transplant (CVTS – Cardiovascular & Thoracic Surgery) focuses on the surgical treatment of complex heart and lung diseases, including end-stage heart failure, severe lung disease, congenital heart defects, and coronary artery conditions. It involves heart and lung transplantation, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), valve repair/replacement, and aortic surgery. Advances in mechanical circulatory support (ECMO, LVAD), minimally invasive techniques, and immunosuppressive therapies have significantly improved transplant success rates and long-term patient outcomes.
