FAQ's Related to Cardiac Surgeon

A cardiothoracic surgeon is a medical doctor who specialises in surgical procedures of the heart, lungs, oesophagus, and other organs in the chest. This includes complex surgeries like coronary artery bypass, heart valve repair/replacement, lung resections, and congenital heart defect repairs.

They manage and perform surgeries for conditions such as:

  • Coronary artery disease (blocked arteries)
  • Heart valve disorders
  • Congenital heart defects
  • Lung cancer
  • Esophageal disorders
  • Aortic aneurysms
  • Pericardial disease

A cardiologist diagnoses and treats heart conditions using medications and non-surgical interventions, while a cardiothoracic surgeon performs surgical procedures when these conditions require operative treatment.

Surgery is recommended when medical therapy is no longer effective or when the condition poses an immediate threat to life, such as in severe coronary artery blockages, valve failure, large aortic aneurysms, or congenital defects.
