Heart Transplant

A heart transplant is a life-saving procedure performed on patients suffering from end-stage heart failure or any other serious heart condition that cannot be treated with medicines or other physical methods. When the heart can not efficiently pump blood to the heart and the whole to meet the body’s needs, a heart transplant becomes the only option. This surgery involves the replacement of the heart of a person suffering from end-stage heart failure with the heart of a diseased donor.

Gleneagles Hospital is the top heart transplant hospital in Chennai. We are dedicated to providing life-saving, world-class care to patients suffering from severe heart failure. We at our heart transplant centre use world-class technologies along with years of experience with doctors to provide patients with the best results possible.

Conditions Treated

Our heart transplant hospital in Chennai provides treatment for various heart conditions that may lead to a heart transplant, including:

  • Severe Heart Failure: A condition that seriously disables the function of the heart to pump blood, affecting total body function and health.
  • Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): It occurs because of the clogging of heart arteries, this may fail the heart and the need for a transplant.
  • Dilated Cardiomyopathy: A condition where the heart gets large but weak, leading to poor pumping and possibly heart failure.
  • Congenital Heart Defects: Defects in the heart's development and growth during birth can result in increased heart failure, which results in an increased need for transplant as an option.
  • Arrhythmias: Irregular heartbeats that cannot be managed by medicines or devices pose a potential threat of heart failure, which in the future needs a transplant.
