What is the Cost of Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) Surgery in India?

Most of India's leading and renowned hospitals provide affordable VSD closure surgery. The average cost of VSD closure surgery in India ranges from around INR 2.5 lakhs to INR 3.5 lakhs for Indian patients, while it costs USD 4000 to USD 6000 for international patients. However, the cost may vary widely depending on factors such as the type of surgery, the hospital, the surgeon's experience, etc. This cost includes surgeon fees, anaesthesia charges, OT charges, medical consumables and hospital stay for a specified number of days.

What is VSD Surgery?

VSD, also known as a hole in the heart, is a common heart problem present at birth. The hole lets blood flow abnormally, which can lead to too much blood going to the lungs.

VSDs can cause a range of symptoms, which may vary depending on the size of the defect and the age of the individual. VSD causes symptoms such as shortness of breath, heart murmur, poor feeding and growth, fatigue, frequent respiratory infections, etc. So, surgery is required to close the hole in the heart.

ASD closure surgery is a procedure to close a hole in the heart. While ASDs are typically identified in the first year of life, they can also be diagnosed later in childhood and, on occasion, even in adulthood. Regardless of when the condition is discovered, it is important to closely monitor and provide appropriate treatment for ASDs.

What are the Different Types of VSD Closure Surgery?

VSD closure surgery can be performed using various methods, depending on the size, location, and severity of the defect. Here are the primary types of VSD closure surgeries:

  • Open-heart surgery: Open-heart surgery is the traditional method for repairing a VSD. In this procedure, the surgeon closes the VSD with a patch or stitches.
  • Minimally invasive surgery (MIS): MIS is a less invasive option than traditional open-heart surgery.
  • Catheter-based procedures: Catheter-based procedures (percutaneous or transcatheter closure) are non-surgical options for closing certain types of VSDs. 

Consulting with a cardiologist and a cardiac surgeon is essential to determine the best approach for closing a VSD. They will recommend the most suitable procedure for the individual patient's needs.

What are the Factors Affecting the Cost of VSD Closure Surgery?

The cost of VSD closure surgery in India is influenced by the type of procedure, hospital fees, surgeon's fees, pre-and post-operative care, the length of hospital stay, etc. Some of the factors influencing the cost are mentioned below:

Hospital type

The cost of surgery can be affected by the quality and facilities of the hospital where it is performed. Hospitals with advanced technology, experienced staff, and specialised units may charge more.

Surgeon's expertise

The cost of the procedure can be influenced by the surgeon's experience and expertise. Cardiac surgeons with extensive experience in VSD closure surgery may charge more.

Pre-operative medical tests

The expense of pre-surgery tests, including echocardiograms, electrocardiograms (ECG), blood tests, and imaging scans, can add to the total cost of the surgery.

Medical complications

Should complications arise during or after the surgery, additional medical treatments and extended hospitalisation may increase the overall cost.

Hospital stay

The length of hospitalisation after surgery can influence the cost, with longer stays resulting in higher expenses.

Post-operative care

The cost of medications and follow-up appointments during the recovery period will also contribute to the total expense.

The patient should thoroughly discuss the expenses related to VSD closure to proceed with the procedure carefully.

What is the Cost of Diagnostic Tests Required Before VSD Closure Surgery?

 

The cost of diagnostic tests may range from INR 15,000 - INR 20,000 (USD 250 - USD 300). These may include:

  • Doppler ultrasound
  • Echocardiogram
  • Electrocardiogram

Apart from these, your doctor may also suggest other investigations depending on your health condition.

What are the Pre-Surgical and Post-Surgical Expenses for VSD Closure Surgery in India?

The costs associated with VSD closure surgery in India can vary widely depending on the hospital, city, and specific patient needs. The pre-and post-surgical expenses include the following:

What is Involved in Post-VSD Closure Recovery?

Most children recover quickly and without complications after VSD surgery, but still, you need to take some precautions. Some of the lifestyle changes post-surgery may include the following:

  • Activity restrictions: Post-operative activity levels and restrictions will vary. Follow your doctor's recommendations for resuming normal activities.
  • Follow-up care: Regular follow-up visits with your doctor are crucial to monitor the success of the repair and overall heart health.

The doctor can advise you on which activities are safe for your child. It is important to remember that post surgery many children lead healthy, fully active, and productive lives.

Does Health Insurance Cover the Cost of VSD Closure Surgery?

In India, health insurance policies cover VSD closure surgery. However, it's crucial to note that the extent of coverage and the specific terms can differ based on the insurance provider and the policy details.

It is recommended that you thoroughly review your policy's specifics to increase the likelihood of receiving the maximum coverage available for the surgery.

At Medanta, Gurugram, the doctors and nurses monitored my recovery closely and guided my parents through every stage of my healing. I returned home with a healthy heart and a big smile. Dr Anil Bhan performed my double-valve replacement surgery with great expertise. Knowing I was in such experienced hands gave my family and me the confidence we needed before such a major procedure.
