We often hear about heart disease, but what about structural heart disease? While coronary artery disease steals the spotlight, structural heart disease involves issues with the heart’s valves or walls. These issues can significantly affect your heart’s ability to pump blood efficiently, leading to fatigue, shortness of breath, and even life-threatening complications. But don’t worry-there’s hope.

Whether it’s a problem with a valve or a defect in the heart’s walls, Dr. Gupta offers advanced interventions to help restore your heart to its best possible state. Let’s explore the solutions available for heart valve disorders, and how you can get back to enjoying life without limitations.

Structural heart disease refers to any condition where the heart’s structure-its valves, walls, or chambers-doesn’t work properly. This can include issues like heart valve leakage, stenosis (narrowing of the valves), or congenital defects (conditions present from birth). These issues can make it harder for your heart to pump blood and lead to symptoms like:
While structural heart disease might sound complicated, Dr. Rishi Gupta’s structural heart disease treatment options offer patients a chance for better health through minimally invasive techniques and cutting-edge technology.

In Faridabad, you can rely on Dr. Gupta’s expertise in treating structural heart diseases. Some of the treatments available include:
If your aortic valve is narrowed (a condition known as aortic stenosis), a Percutaneous Aortic Valve Replacement (PAVR) might be the solution. Unlike traditional surgery, this procedure is minimally invasive, meaning you won’t have to undergo a major operation. The new valve is inserted via a catheter, making the process smoother and offering a quicker recovery time.
If your heart valves are stiff or narrowed, the heart valve dilatation procedure can help. This procedure uses a balloon to gently widen the valve, improving blood flow. It’s less invasive and can make a significant difference in how you feel day-to-day.
In cases where the mitral valve leaks, causing blood to flow backward, a procedure called Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair (TMVR) might be necessary. Dr. Gupta’s team uses the latest tools to repair the valve without the need for open-heart surgery, allowing for a quicker recovery.
