Medicana Camlica Hospital's Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery departments stand out for their specialist personnel, who have achieved global success. With its infrastructure that allows more than 1500 procedures (coronary angiography, stent, ablation, and cardiac pacemaker implantations) in the cardiac catheterization (angiography) laboratory as well as more than 400 bypass surgeries per year, the department admits patients 24*7. Pet-CT, a Gamma Camera, an Intraoperative 1.5 Tesla MRI, an Angiography (Catheter) Laboratory, a B-Plan Angio, a DSA Digital Angiography, an Ultrasound, and other cardio-diagnostic tools are available at the hospital.
The CGM test and 3D-ECG are also available at the facility. In a hospital setting, coronary artery bypass surgery can be performed using a minimally invasive approach or open heart surgery. The surgeon determines the best approach based on the preoperative strategy. There are two types of open cardiac surgery: on-pump and off-pump procedures. By joining one end of the graft before the stenotic or occluded section and the other end after the stenotic segment, the blocked coronary artery is bypassed. A small incision is made on the chest wall for the minimally invasive technique, and the procedure is carried out using video imaging techniques. Prof. Gökçe Şirin is a cardiovascular specialist at the hospital.

Memorial Sisli Hospital's cardiovascular surgery department is well-equipped to perform a variety of heart treatments using cutting-edge and modern cardiac technologies. The center provides da Vinci Robotic Surgery, which is considered the most cutting-edge medical technique. Incisions made during robotic heart surgery are significantly smaller than those made during minimally invasive heart surgery.
Surgeons commonly enter the heart for surgery via the sternum. The surgeon extracts and uses veins from the patient's body that do not leave any deficits in the area throughout the procedure. Priority is given to the mammary interna vein extracted from the chest. The vessel used may change depending on the location and degree of stenosis in the bypassed vessel. During surgery, the heart may be connected to a heart-lung machine, which supplies blood to the heart and lungs. Several coronary bypass surgeries can be performed on the working heart (beating heart) in special cases such as COPD and chronic kidney disease. Prof. Bingür Sönmez is the cardiovascular specialist at the hospital.

What is Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) and how does it work?
Coronary artery bypass graft surgery is performed to create a new path for blood to flow around in the case of a partially blocked or completely blocked artery in the heart. During the surgery, the surgeons may take a healthy blood vessel from the chest or leg area. This vessel is connected to the artery with blocked blood flow to improve movement. Coronary artery bypass surgery does not cure the underlying heart disease, such as atherosclerosis of coronary artery disease, that caused the blockage. However, it can alleviate symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath.
What medical conditions can be treated through Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)?
The surgery may be done as an emergency treatment for a heart attack. Other than that, it might be recommended that you have the following:
- A clog in the left main coronary artery
- A severe narrowing of the main heart artery
- Severe chest pain due to narrowing of heart arteries
- A blocked heart artery that cannot be treated with coronary angioplasty
- An unsuccessful angioplasty with or without a stent
What is the recovery process after a Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)?
The average recovery time following cardiac bypass surgery is between 6 and 8 weeks and up to 3 months. Patients typically receive thorough instructions on how to exercise, take their medications, follow up appointments, take care of their wounds, and resume normal activities. Cardiac rehabilitation is also suggested for better healing and recovery.
