Costo del reemplazo de válvula cardíaca en Turquía

The cost of Cardiac Valve Replacement Surgery in India generally ranges from $10,000 to $15,000 US dollars This surgery is performed to replace a damaged heart valve with either a mechanical valve or a biological (tissue) valve to restore normal blood flow and improve heart function. The traditional method involves open-heart surgery, which remains the most common and affordable option. The cost is lower as compared to the western countries for the minimally invasive or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR/TAVI) techniques.

¿Qué es el reemplazo de válvula cardíaca?

Heart valve replacement is a surgical or minimally invasive procedure where a damaged or diseased heart valve is removed and replaced with an artificial or biological valve to restore normal blood flow through the heart.

Why Do Heart Valves Need Replacement?

Heart valves control the direction of blood flow. Replacement may be needed when a valve becomes:

Stenotic – too narrow, restricting blood flow
Regurgitante – leaking, allowing blood to flow backward
Severely damaged due to age, infection, or congenital defects

Common conditions include aortic stenosis, mitral regurgitation, and rheumatic valve disease.

Who Requires Heart Valve Replacement Surgery in Turkey?

Patients may be advised heart valve replacement when valve disease becomes severe, symptomatic, or life-threatening. Typical candidates include:

Grave estenosis valvular (narrowed valve restricting blood flow)
Grave insuficiencia valvular (leaking valve causing backward flow)
Symptomatic patients with breathlessness, fatigue, chest pain, dizziness, or fainting
Las Personas con Discapacidades enfermedad de la válvula aórtica (common in elderly patients)
Los pacientes con mitral valve failure affecting heart function
Daños en las válvulas por cardiopatía reumática
Valve destruction due to endocarditis infecciosa (heart valve infection)
Congenital valve defects requiring correction
Progressive valve disease causing heart enlargement or heart failure
Patients not responding adequately to administración medica
High-risk surgical patients eligible for TAVR / TAVI (minimally invasive valve replacement)
Pacientes que necesitan redo valve surgery (previous valve failure)

Types of Heart Valve Surgery and Cost in USD

Tipo de Cirugía	Descripción
Reparación de válvulas cardíacas	The native valve is preserved and corrected to improve function. Techniques may include reshaping valve leaflets, removing excess tissue, or repairing structural defects. Commonly performed for mitral valve problems.
Reemplazo de la válvula cardíaca	The damaged valve is removed and replaced with an artificial valve. Replacement valves may be mechanical (long-lasting) or biological/tissue (more natural flow). Used when repair is not feasible.
Reemplazo de válvula mecánica	A synthetic, highly durable valve is implanted. These valves can last for decades but typically require lifelong anticoagulation (blood thinners) to prevent clot formation.
Reemplazo valvular biológico (de tejido)	Valves made from animal or human tissue are used. They generally provide natural blood flow dynamics and often avoid lifelong blood thinners but have a limited lifespan.
Transcatheter Valve Replacement (TAVR / TAVI)	A minimally invasive, catheter-based technique where a new valve is inserted without open-heart surgery. Frequently used for high-risk patients, especially in aortic valve disease.
Valvuloplastia con balón	A catheter with a balloon is used to widen a narrowed valve. This is typically a temporary or selective treatment and does not involve replacing the valve.
Cirugía valvular mínimamente invasiva	Performed through smaller incisions rather than full open-heart surgery. Reduces trauma, hospital stay, and recovery time while achieving similar outcomes in selected patients.
