What is Aortic Valve Repair?
Aortic valve repair is a cardiac surgical procedure performed to correct a diseased or malfunctioning aortic valve (stenosis or regurgitation) while preserving the patient's own valve tissue, avoiding the need for a prosthetic replacement. It is typically recommended for patients with structurally suitable valves and helps restore normal blood flow from the heart to the body, reducing symptoms like breathlessness, fatigue, and chest discomfort. India offers globally accredited cardiac centers with experienced surgeons performing this procedure at a fraction of Western costs.
Who may be considered?
Aortic Valve Repair may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
Performed via median sternotomy using cardiopulmonary bypass, the surgeon reshapes, resects, or reinforces valve leaflets and the annulus to restore proper valve function.
Open-Heart Aortic Valve Repair (Valvuloplasty/Annuloplasty)
Most CommonPerformed via median sternotomy using cardiopulmonary bypass, the surgeon reshapes, resects, or reinforces valve leaflets and the annulus to restore proper valve function.

Treatment / Procedure Estimate
Stay in India
Usually Included in Hospital Package
- Pre-operative cardiac evaluation

- Standard cardiac medications during hospitalization
- Post-op echocardiogram before discharge
Usually Not Included

Recovery and follow-up
Most patients resume light daily activities within 4-6 weeks, with full recovery and return to normal exertion typically taking 6-12 weeks depending on the surgical approach; a structured cardiac rehabilitation program and periodic follow-up echocardiograms are recommended.
Risks
As with any open-heart procedure, risks include bleeding, infection, arrhythmia, stroke, and in rare cases, failure of the repair requiring valve replacement; individual risk depends on age, valve anatomy, and overall cardiac function.
Alternatives
Depending on valve anatomy and patient condition, alternatives include aortic valve replacement (mechanical or bioprosthetic), transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for select high-risk patients, or continued medical management with regular monitoring for milder cases.
