Dr. Ashok Seth is the Right Doctor to Treat Septal Myectomy in India

Overview Septal myectomy is a surgical method performed to lessen the muscle thickening that occurs in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Septal myectomy is one treatment option for HCM when symptoms persist despite optimal treatment with medications, or if obstruction severely restricts blood ejection from the heart. Why Have Septal Myectomy Surgery in India? Patients suffering from debilitating symptoms of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who cannot gain relief from medication or other less invasive treatment options may be candidates for septal myectomy surgery. They may experience these symptoms:

  • Shortness of breath on exertion

  • Dizziness

  • Fainting

  • Angina

  • Cardiac arrhythmias

Procedure of Septal Myectomy Surgery in India Septal myectomy is an open-heart surgery that is performed under general anaesthesia. Your surgeon makes a 6 to 8 inch long incision in the centre of the chest and separates the breastbone to access the heart. Your heart is connected to a heart-lung bypass machine (device that redirects blood away from the heart and takes over its pumping action) to keep your heart still while performing the surgery. Your surgeon then inserts a cannula (a thin tube) into the aorta, and reaches the heart through the aortic valve so no incision to the heart is required. Once the heart is accessed, a portion of the thickened heart muscle is cut and removed. Temporary pacing wires may be inserted into your heart to deliver electrical impulses and regulate heart rhythm until recovery along with a chest tube to drain fluids. The separated breastbone is then closed with special sternal wires and the chest incision is closed with absorbable sutures. The surgery takes around 3 to 6 hours to complete.
