Interventional Cardiovascular Surgery

Cardiac surgery is surgery on the heart or great vessels performed by cardiac surgeons. It is often used to treat complications of ischemic heart disease (for example, with coronary artery bypass grafting) or to treat valvular heart disease from various causes. Cardiac surgeons, interventional cardiologists and imaging specialists typically work together as the Heart Team, in particular in structural heart centres of excellence. In this section, you will find a selection of content in the field of interventional vardiovascular surgery.
