Heart Valve Replacement

Heart valve diseases can impair the heart’s proper function, making it difficult to pump blood effectively throughout the body. Valves regulate blood flow within the heart, and their proper operation is vital for maintaining heart health. When valves are damaged or fail to function, a significant health issue arises that requires treatment. Op. Dr. Murat Ertürk has extensive experience in heart valve replacement and other cardiovascular surgeries.

Heart valve replacement is typically performed when the valve is irreparable or severely damaged. In this procedure, the damaged valve is removed and replaced with a new artificial valve. Artificial valves can be mechanical or biological, and the choice depends on the patient’s condition. This surgery aims to restore heart function and improve patients’ quality of life.

Although heart valve replacement usually requires open-heart surgery, it can also be performed using minimally invasive techniques today. This approach enables faster recovery and less pain for patients. Op. Dr. Murat Ertürk provides personalized treatment plans for each patient to achieve successful outcomes.

Heart valve replacement is a critical treatment to protect heart health and ensure the heart functions properly. Dr. Ertürk’s surgical expertise helps patients regain their health and improve their quality of life.
