Dr. Santhosh Kumar Padakanti, is an expert Heart Surgeon preventing Aortic Valve Disease. The aorta is the largest artery in the body, which carries blood from the heart and extends down through the abdomen. The aortic valve is present between the aorta and the lower chamber of the heart on the left side. It opens up to allow blood flow out of the heart and then closes to prevent backward flow of the blood into the heart. Aortic valve diseases include aortic valve regurgitation, aortic valve does not close properly, resulting in back flow of blood into the heart) and aortic stenosis (narrowing of the aortic valve, which results in restriction of blood flow. The aortic valve defect may be present at birth or can be acquired at a later stage in life. Acquired aortic valve diseases occur because of structural changes in the valve which can be caused by rheumatic fever, infectious endocarditis, and aortic valve degeneration. Other causes include hypertension, tumors, radiation exposure, heart attack and connective tissue disorders.The early symptoms of aortic valve diseases include fatigue, swelling of ankles, palpitation or irregular heartbeat, fainting, weakness, chest pain, and shortness of breath.

An aortic aneurysm is a bulging, dilation or ballooning in the wall of a blood vessel, usually an artery, that is due to weakness or degeneration that develops in a portion of the artery wall explains Dr. Santhosh Kumar Padakanti, best Heart Surgeon. Just like a balloon, the aneurysm enlarges, stretching the walls of the artery thinner which compromises the artery walls ability to stretch any further. At this point, an aneurysm is at risk of rupturing and causing potentially fatal bleeding, just as a balloon will pop when blown up too much. The best method to repair an aneurysm depends upon several factors, including the location and shape of the aneurysm as well as the physical condition of the patient. Endovascular grafting is a minimally invasive method to treat an aortic aneurysm. Instead of an open aneurysm repair in which your chest and abdomen are surgically opened, your surgeon may consider a procedure called an endovascular aneurysm repair or EVAR. Endovascular repair of aneurysms does not require a large incision and has a substantially shorter recovery than the conventional open surgical approach. However, not all aneurysms are suitable for endovascular repair.

Dr. Santhosh Kumar Padakanti, is one of the best Heart Surgeon in Hyderabad. A coronary artery bypass graft or CABG is a surgical procedure used to treat coronary heart disease. It diverts blood around narrowed or clogged parts of the major arteries to improve blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart. It diverts blood around narrowed or clogged parts of the major arteries to improve blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart. Like all organs in the body, the heart needs a constant supply of blood. This is supplied by 2 large blood vessels called the left and right coronary arteries. Over time, these arteries can become narrowed and hardened by the build-up of fatty deposits called plaques. This process is known as atherosclerosis. People with atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries are said to have coronary heart disease.Your chances of developing coronary heart disease increase with age. Coronary heart disease can also cause angina, which is chest pain that happens when the supply of oxygen-rich blood to the heart becomes restricted. While angina can often be treated with medicine, severe angina may require a coronary artery bypass graft to improve the blood supply to the heart. Another risk associated with coronary heart disease is the possibility of one of the plaques in the coronary artery rupturing or splitting, creating a blood clot. If the blood clot blocks the blood supply to the heart, it can trigger a heart attack. A coronary artery bypass graft may be recommended to reduce your chances of having a heart attack.

A Heart surgeon explains an atrial septal defect or ASD as a congenital heart defect where there is a hole in the atrial septum, the wall which separates the right and left atria. A small opening between the two atria (foramen ovale) is always present at birth, but usually seals off shortly thereafter. If the natural opening persists, it is called patent foramen ovale, if the opening is bigger than that and involves a defect in the muscular septum, it is called ASD. Patients with a big ASD are more likely to develop congestive heart failure or stroke. Because of the excessive flow of blood into the right atrium, right ventricle and lungs, this enlarges the right atrium and right ventricle and increases pressures in the pulmonary artery. Patients are supported by a heart-lung machine intraoperatively and the ASD is approached through an opening in the right atrium. Smaller ASDs can simply be closed using a suture and oversewing the hole. For larger ASDa, a patch is usually used to close the hole. This patch can be taken from the pericardium (the sac that surrounds the heart) or from synthetic materials. Most patients with an ASD are candidates for minimally invasive surgery. Dr. Santhosh Kumar Padakanti, perform the operation by making only a small 4-6 cm incision on the right side of the chest instead of the large midline-incision and division of the sternum used in traditional open surgery.
