surgical classification of congenital heart disease

Congenital heart disease surgery includes interventional surgery, thoracoscopic surgery, open surgery and other types.

1. Interventional surgery

Interventional surgery is mainly used for the treatment of patent ductus arteriosus, atrial septal defect and other diseases, with less surgical trauma and faster postoperative recovery.

2. Thoracoscopic surgery

Thoracoscopic surgery belongs to minimally invasive surgery, mainly used for the treatment of more serious mitral valve insufficiency, endocardial cushion defect, patent ductus arteriosus and other diseases.

3. Open surgery

Open surgery is to make an incision in the middle of the chest and armpit and expose the heart, and perform surgery under naked eye observation. It is mainly suitable for congenital heart disease patients with multiple heart malformations.
