Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Surgery Turkey
In this video, Turkey’s leading cardiovascular surgeon talks about his specialization and experience in the field of aortic aneurysm surgery. Abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery is one field that requires specialization and very good infrastructure as it deals with swelling in the wall of the aorta.
The surgeon also explains a stem cell treatment program for ascending aortic aneurysms in which multipotent stem cells of the patient are used, which has shown favorable results in improving heart function.
“Especially the aortic aneurysms are another area and ascending aortic aneurysms……..ascending aorta. They also require specialized teams and infrastructure. We specialize in aortic surgery, aortic aneurysm surgery, and many aortic replacements.
The other area is, of course, the major area is the myocardial vascularisation procedure, including the coronary aortic bypass operation. Again, coronary aortic bypass. The operation, though there are rude things for us.
We are receiving more and more re-operation patients and complicated patients with low ejection fractions and low heart function. Different kinds of myocardial vascularisation procedures, including beating heart surgeries, combined surgeries for … valve repairs or valve replacement, and also ….. procedures with our cardiology team.
Very soon, we will be starting our stem cell treatment program.”
Stem Cell Transplantation for Aortic Aneurysm Surgery
“Stem cell transplantation or stem cell treatment is the program which uses multipotent stem cells derived from a patient’s own blood or bone marrow.
This research is still ongoing, and the results are very variable. However, the stem cell injections, either interventional without surgery by a catheter or during the surgery, is favorable, at least I find it favorable results in improving the heart function.”
Hospitals in Turkey
“Actually, it is really, it is one of the most difficult jobs. This is really a top notch hospital with all the infrastructure and equipment most up-to-date.
We do everything. Actually, this is very one of the few hospitals, even including the hospitals in the United States. Within its all categories and size …one of the most advanced hospitals in the world.”
Tourism in Turkey
“Actually Turkey is a rising star now not only for health issues but for tourism and economically and this country, with its very old culture and with a huge historical background, is very close to many neighboring countries as well as it is very close to everywhere.
We have the chance to be situated in the middle of the world. And the Turkish airline flies more than 200 flights internationally over direct flights to Istanbul.
There are flights from North America, more than I believe, 8 flights………Washington DC, Los Angeles, Toronto, Chicago, and they are planning to increase their flights to Miami and Atlanta, also from South America. All over the world, it is very easy to reach.
Our international departments organize the whole trip for the patients, including their airport pickups and their visas, which is very easy and comfortable, and most countries do not require a visa to come to Turkey. Of course, the people are very friendly, and this is a very safe environment here.”
