Heart Transplant Overview

A heart transplant or a cardiac transplant is an invasive procedure where the diseased, damaged heart is replaced with a new heart. It is the only life-saving procedure for patients suffering from terminally-ill heart failure, severe coronary artery disease, congenital heart diseases, and heart valve disease. An advanced medical procedure, a heart transplant is done by exceptionally trained and experienced cardiac transplant surgeons. A highly complicated procedure, heart transplant needs hospitals equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, helmed by expert surgeons and paramedical staff.
