Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a type of surgery that improves blood flow to the heart to treat people who have severe coronary heart disease (CHD). CHD is a disease in which a waxy substance called plaque builds up inside the coronary arteries and reduces the flow of oxygen-rich blood to the heart and may lead to a heart attack. During CABG, a healthy artery or vein from the body is connected, or grafted, to the blocked coronary artery.
This is a surgical procedure during which surgeons may remove a damaged valve from the heart and substitute a healthy one/ repair the existing valve. Four valves direct blood to and from the body through the heart and any of these valves may malfunction and result in symptoms. These symptoms may progressively worsen unless the damaged valve/valves are repaired/replaced.
A lung transplant is a surgical procedure to replace a diseased or failing lung with a healthy lung, usually from a deceased donor to treat lung disease. During a lung transplant, surgeons remove your diseased lung and then attach a donor lung to your airway and to the blood vessels that lead to and from your heart.
A kidney transplant is a surgery done to replace a diseased kidney with a healthy kidney from a donor to treat kidney failure. The kidney may come from a deceased organ donor or from a living donor. Family members or others who are a good match may be able to donate one of their kidneys.
