Structural Heart Interventions are advanced, minimally invasive procedures performed to treat complex heart valve diseases without the need for conventional open-heart surgery. These interventions are particularly beneficial for patients who are considered high-risk for traditional surgical valve replacement.
TAVR (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is used to treat severe aortic stenosis by replacing the narrowed aortic valve using a catheter-based approach.
TMVR (Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair or Replacement) is performed to treat significant mitral valve regurgitation or stenosis using catheter-guided techniques.
During these procedures, a new valve or repair device is delivered through a blood vessel—typically via the groin—and positioned inside the diseased valve under advanced imaging guidance. These techniques restore proper blood flow, relieve symptoms, and improve heart function with shorter recovery times compared to open surgery.
1.5 to 3 Hours
Local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia (depending on case complexity)
2–4 Days
2–3 Weeks
$18,000 – $35,000*
*Cost varies depending on valve type, device selection, imaging requirements, hospital category, and patient condition.
The procedure is conducted in a hybrid cardiac catheterization laboratory equipped with advanced imaging systems.
Step-by-step process
1. Anesthesia and Preparation
The patient is given local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia for comfort and safety.
2. Vascular Access
A small incision is made, usually in the groin, and a catheter is inserted into a major blood vessel.
3. Valve Positioning
Using real-time imaging (fluoroscopy and echocardiography), the catheter is guided to the diseased valve.
4. Deployment of Valve or Repair Device
For TAVR, a collapsible replacement valve is expanded within the diseased aortic valve.
For TMVR, a repair or replacement device is positioned to restore proper mitral valve function.
5. Function Assessment
Valve performance and blood flow are assessed immediately to ensure proper positioning and function.
6. Completion and Monitoring
The catheter is removed, and the patient is monitored in a cardiac care unit for stabilization and recovery.
These procedures significantly improve valve function and reduce symptoms such as breathlessness and fatigue.
The choice of intervention depends on the valve involved and patient risk profile.
TAVR or TMVR may be advised in the following clinical situations:
Final suitability is determined after cardiology consultation, echocardiography, CT imaging, and comprehensive heart team evaluation.
Minimally Invasive Approach: No large chest incision required.
Shorter Hospital Stay: Faster recovery compared to open-heart surgery.
Improved Valve Function: Restores efficient blood flow through the heart.
Reduced Surgical Risk: Ideal for elderly or high-risk patients.
Enhanced Quality of Life: Rapid symptom relief and improved functional capacity.

I was initially concerned about the cost of cardiac treatment in my home country. Through Healing with India, I received a transparent cost estimate and comprehensive package that was significantly more affordable without compromising on quality. The entire process was clearly explained, and there were no unexpected expenses. It truly made advanced treatment accessible to me.
From the moment I arrived in India until my departure, the Healing with India team ensured everything was well coordinated. Airport pickup, hospital appointments, documentation, and follow-up schedules were managed seamlessly. I felt supported at every stage of my medical journey.
What stood out most was the level of care and attention I received. The medical team took time to explain my condition and treatment plan in detail. The Healing with India coordinators were always available to answer my questions and made sure I was comfortable throughout my stay.
The accommodation arranged for me and my family was comfortable and conveniently located near the hospital. The team assisted with local transportation, dietary needs, and language support. It made a stressful situation much easier for both me and my family.
Healing with India went beyond simply arranging treatment. They ensured my medical reports were reviewed before travel, coordinated with specialists for a second opinion, and even assisted with post-procedure follow-up once I returned home. Their commitment to quality and patient well-being was evident at every step.
