Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)

Cardiac surgery explanation

What is CABG?

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting is a surgical procedure used to treat severe blockage in the coronary arteries. The surgeon uses a healthy blood vessel from another part of the body to bypass the blocked artery and restore normal blood flow to the heart.

When is it recommended?

CABG is recommended when:

  • Multiple coronary arteries are blocked

  • Angioplasty is not sufficient

  • There is severe coronary artery disease

What to Expect

  • Hospital Stay: 5–7 days

  • ICU Stay: 1–2 days

  • Recovery Time: 6–8 weeks

  • Success Rate: 95%+ in experienced centers

Cost Comparison

​India   $4,500 – $12,000

UK      $40,000 – $60,000

USA    $70,000 – $150,000

Heart Valve Repair or Replacement

Cardiac surgery explanation

What is it?

Heart valves regulate blood flow through the heart. When a valve becomes narrowed (stenosis) or leaky (regurgitation), it may need to be repaired or replaced.

​

Types of Valve Procedures

  • Mechanical valve replacement

  • Biological valve replacement

  • Minimally invasive valve surgery

  • Transcatheter valve replacement (TAVR)

What to Expect

  • Hospital Stay: 5–7 days

  • Recovery Time: 4–6 weeks

  • Long-term outcome: Excellent with proper follow-up care

Cost Comparison

India   $5,000 – $9,500

UK       $35,000 – $60,000

USA    $120,000 – $170,000

Aneurysm Repair

What is an Aneurysm?

An aneurysm occurs when a blood vessel wall weakens and bulges, often in the aorta. If untreated, it may rupture and cause life-threatening bleeding.

Types of Aneurysm Repair

  • Open Aortic Surgery

  • Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR)

What to Expect

  • Hospital Stay: 5–7 days

  • Recovery Time: 4–6 weeks

  • Long-term outcome: Excellent with proper follow-up care

Cost Comparison

India     $7,000 – $12,000

UK        $35,000 – $70,000

USA    $80,000 – $150,000

India   $5,000 – $9,500

UK       $35,000 – $60,000

USA    $120,000 – $170,000

Treatment Options

  • Catheter Ablation

  • Maze Procedure

  • Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD)

What to Expect

  • Hospital Stay: 5–7 days

  • Recovery Time: 4–6 weeks

  • Long-term outcome: Excellent with proper follow-up care

Cost Comparison

USA    $120,000 – $170,000

Angioplasty and Stenting

What is Angioplasty?

Angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that opens blocked coronary arteries using a balloon catheter and often a stent to keep the artery open.

When is it Recommended?

  • Mild to moderate coronary artery blockage

  • Heart attack treatment

  • Chest pain (angina)

What to Expect

  • Procedure Time: 30–90 minutes

  • Hospital Stay: 1–2 days

  • Recovery: 1 week

Cost Comparison

India   $1,800 – $3,600
