How to Select the Best Hospital for Rastelli Procedure in Delhi NCR, India?
Choosing the right hospital for rastelli procedure is one of the most important decisions in your treatment journey. A few factors are worth weighing before you decide:
International Accreditation
Look for a hospital with international accreditation such as JCI or NABH — see the accreditation badges shown for each hospital below.
Specialization
Check that the hospital's listed specialties actually include cardiovascular surgery rather than only general care.
Capacity and Track Record
Bed count and year established (shown below for each hospital) are a reasonable proxy for scale and operating experience.
Transparent Costs
Ask for an itemised, all-inclusive estimate — hospital charges, room category and stay — before you travel. Our cost calculator (linked below) gives a starting estimate.
Understanding Rastelli Procedure
The Rastelli Procedure is a complex open-heart surgery performed primarily in children and young adults with specific forms of congenital heart disease — notably Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) with a Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) and Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction (LVOTO) — achieving long-term survival rates exceeding 85–90% at experienced congenital cardiac centers.
Clinical Overview
- The Rastelli Procedure addresses a triad of congenital cardiac anomalies: dextro-Transposition of the Great Arteries (d-TGA), a large Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD), and significant Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction (LVOTO) — a combination that is incompatible with long-term survival without surgical correction.
- In this anatomic configuration, the aorta arises from the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery from the left ventricle; the LVOTO prevents effective arterial switching, making the standard arterial switch operation unsuitable.
- Without repair, systemic oxygen saturations remain critically low, progressive ventricular dysfunction occurs, and median survival without intervention is measured in months to a few years.
Who is a Candidate?
- ELIGIBLE PATIENTS:
- Infants and children (most commonly aged 1–5 years, though timing is individualized) with confirmed d-TGA + large subaortic VSD + fixed or dynamic LVOTO (subpulmonary stenosis, pulmonary valve stenosis, or pulmonary atresia)
- Patients with adequate left ventricular size (LV-to-RV volume ratio assessed on cardiac MRI/CT; LV must be capable of sustaining systemic circulation)
- Patients with sufficient VSD size to allow unobstructed intracardiac tunnel construction (typically ≥50% of the aortic annulus diameter)
- +16 more
Treatment Options & Approaches
- STANDARD RASTELLI PROCEDURE (OPEN HEART — CARDIOPULMONARY BYPASS):
Recovery
- PHASE 1 — PRE-OPERATIVE EVALUATION (Days 1–5 after arrival):
Risks to be aware of
- The Rastelli Procedure carries significant perioperative and long-term risks that must be transparently discussed with families prior to surgery.
- Operative mortality at high-volume centers is reported at 3–8%, with higher risk in patients with associated anomalies, prior palliative procedures, or pulmonary hypertension.
Why GAF Healthcare
- GAF Healthcare provides comprehensive end-to-end coordination for international families traveling for the Rastelli Procedure, recognizing that parents managing a critically ill child abroad require support that goes far beyond surgical booking.
