At Theo Kofidis Cardiac Surgery, we offer a range of heart care services tailored to meet individual needs. Our surgical options include Open Heart Surgery, Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS), and Hybrid Surgery.
Open Heart Surgery involves creating a large incision through the chest bone (sternotomy) to access the heart directly, allowing surgeons to perform various procedures with clear visibility and precision. This approach often requires longer recovery periods and may have a higher physical impact.
MICS, on the other hand, uses smaller incisions and advanced techniques to minimise trauma, potentially leading to shorter recovery times, less pain, and minimal scarring. Our practice includes a wide range of minimally invasive and endoscopic heart surgery procedures, such as:

Choosing between MICS and Open Heart Surgery depends on various factors, including the type and severity of your heart condition, your overall health, and your personal preferences. It’s essential to discuss these options with your preferred cardiac surgeon who can provide recommendations based on your condition.
