What is Heart Transplant?

Heart Transplant is a surgical procedure to treat a diseased heart and replace it with a healthier donor heart.

How is the Procedure Performed?

During Heart Transplant, the surgeon removes the diseased heart and sews the healthy heart in place followed by attaching the major blood vessels to the new heart. This procedure is performed under general anesthesia and takes around six to eight hours.

Who is the Right Doctor for Heart Transplant?

A highly-qualified cardiac surgeon who focuses on performing heart-related surgeries is the right doctor to consult for getting a Heart Transplant done.

What is the Usual Success Rate for this Procedure?

The five-year survival rate following Heart Transplant is approximately 70%.

It takes around three to six months for complete healing after a Heart Transplant. However, the age and general health of an individual also depend on the recovery period.

A Heart transplant, or a Cardiac transplant, is a surgical transplant procedure performed on patients with end-stage heart failure or severe coronary artery disease when other medical or surgical treatments have failed.

How is the Procedure Performed?

In a Heart, the Transplant procedure involves the removal of the diseased heart and replacing it with the donor's heart. The surgeon then attaches the major blood vessels to the donor's heart.
