Dr Kareem Salhiyyah is very confident in performing complex and redo heart surgery. He has performed similar procedures with very good outcome.
He believes that although these operations carry higher risk than usual, with good preoperative optimisation, meticulous surgical experience, expert intensive care and team work, such cases can offer many patients improved quality of life.
Complex operations include:
- Multiple combined procedures.
- Poor heart muscle function.
- Redo operations.
- Pericardiectomies.
- Patients with other chronic medical conditions
