Myomectomy & Septal Reduction Therapies
During septal myectomy, a surgeon removes excess muscle from the thickened septum. This allows the blood to empty from the ventricle more easily. Another option for treating cardiomyopathy, alcohol septal ablation, involves an injection of alcohol into a blood vessel in the ventricular septum.
Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) Closure
A PFO closure is a structural heart disease treatment to close a small hole called a foramen ovale between the upper two heart chambers (atria).
Pulmonary Thrombectomy, Thromboendarterectomy & Catheter-Based Thrombolysis
These surgical procedures are used to dissolve abnormal blood clots in blood vessels to help improve blood flow and prevent damage to tissues and organs.
Renal Denervation
Renal denervation is a therapeutic option for patients with resistant hypertension. This innovative, minimally invasive procedure removes nerves from the renal artery helping to lower blood pressure.
