Heart Valve Replacement Surgery

Heart Valve Replacement Surgery

What is Heart Valve Surgery?

Heart valve surgery is needed when a heart valve doesn't work right. A valve may not open all the way. Or, a valve may have problems closing. If this happens, blood doesn't move through the heart's chambers the way it should. If a valve doesn't open all the way, less blood moves through to the next chamber. If a valve doesn't close tightly, blood may leak backward. These problems may mean that the heart must work harder to pump the same amount of blood. Or, blood may back up in the lungs or body because it's not moving through the heart as it should
