Life-saving valve replacement with artificial grafts for 44-yr-old patient at AIIMS Bhopal
Bhopal: A bentall surgery, involving the replacement of both the aorta and aortic valve with artificial grafts was successfully conducted at AIIMS Bhopal's department of cardiothoracic and vascular surgery (CTVS).
The patient, a 44-year-old man from Sehore district sought treatment after experiencing chest pain and palpitations for six months. Medical investigations at various hospitals revealed an aortic aneurysm (bulging or ballooning in the wall of the aorta) approximately 8-10 cm in his chest, along with a severely leaking aortic valve.
The critical condition required immediate attention through Bentall surgery, involving the replacement of both the aorta and aortic valve with artificial grafts.
The case was particularly challenging due to the patient's rare B-negative blood type.
Post-surgery, the patient has shown steady improvement. Remarkably, despite the patient's rare blood type, no transfusion was required during this complex procedure, demonstrating the surgical team's expertise and precision.
The successful operation was carried out by Dr Yogesh K Niwaria, Dr M Kishan, Dr Surendra Singh Yadav, Dr Rahul Sharma, Dr Vikram Watti, and Dr Aditya Sirohi.

Bentall surgery is a complex cardiac procedure that replaces the aortic valve and ascending aorta.
It also involves reimplantation of the coronary arteries into a composite graft.
This operation is primarily used to treat aortic root aneurysms and other conditions affecting the aorta and valve. By restoring proper heart function and improving blood flow, the surgery significantly enhances cardiovascular health.
