The heart is a vital organ that needs to be protected and cared for.

The heart, which takes its place in the circulatory system, can be affected quite intensely even in the event of minor damage. This vital organ, which is so important for human health and life, is also responsible for the removal of metabolic wastes such as carbon dioxide from all tissues in the body. Cardiovascular Surgery, also known as cardiovascular surgery and CVC, is the general name for the operations performed by cardiovascular surgeons on the heart and the four great vessels and peripheral vessels. The reason for cardiovascular surgery (CVS) is that the treatment of the problem detected in the heart or vessels as a result of the patient’s examinations is not sufficient to solve the problem with medication or other methods. In this case, there should be no need to worry. Cardiovascular surgery includes different surgical intervention methods.
