What is Heart Valve Replacement?
Heart valve replacement is a medical procedure to replace a damaged or diseased valve in the heart. It includes procedures like aortic or mitral valve replacement using a mechanical heart valve or bioprosthetic valve. Techniques such as open-heart valve surgery and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are used depending on the patient’s condition and age.
When is Valve Replacement Surgery Necessary?
This procedure becomes necessary when there is:
- Severe valve stenosis (narrowing)
- Valve regurgitation (leaking)
- Congenital valve defects like bicuspid aortic valve
- Damage from infections (endocarditis)
- Valve failure from age or previous surgeries
Common Symptoms
- Chest pain or tightness
- Heart murmurs
- Shortness of breath
- Swelling in feet or ankles
- Dizziness or fainting
