Closed Heart Surgery allows surgeons to treat certain cardiac or vascular abnormalities while avoiding direct entry into the heart chambers. Depending on the specific condition, the surgeon may access structures through the chest and perform procedures on blood vessels or tissues surrounding the heart. This approach can be particularly useful for selected congenital conditions in infants and children. A detailed assessment helps determine whether closed or open cardiac surgery is more appropriate for the patient's condition.
