Previously, most operations in this field were shunting, aimed at bypassing coronary artery obstruction. Today, due to advances in Israeli medical technology, our experienced surgeons perform most coronary artery operations without opening the chest. These operations are performed using the “therapeutic catheterization” method.
Currently, open surgery is used only in complex or specific cases of coronary artery occlusion. Catheterization saves patients time for recovery associated with open heart surgery, and also helps to avoid some complications.
