Surgery for Congenital heart defects
in Ciudad Juárez
- Cardiologist
Congenital heart defects are structural abnormalities of the heart that are present at birth. Depending on the type of defect, treatment may involve closing an opening in the heart to improve blood flow and reduce the risk of complications, including abnormal heart rhythms.
Common causes
One common type of congenital heart defect occurs when the wall separating the right and left atria does not close properly. This opening can allow blood to pass between the chambers. A closure procedure may be recommended to prevent abnormal blood flow and support proper heart function.
Treatments and procedures
Congenital heart defect closure can be performed through a minimally invasive catheter-based procedure. A catheter is guided to the heart, where a specialized closure device is positioned over the opening to seal it and help restore normal blood flow.
Take the first step toward better heart health. Make an appointment with the cardiologist in Mexico Juarez to learn whether congenital heart defect closure may be an appropriate treatment option for you.
