Aortic Repair Surgery Manhattan, NYC


An aneurysm is perhaps the most terrifying heart condition that a person can be diagnosed with. No one should have to live through the unimaginable fright of not knowing whether the next thing to make your heart skip a beat will be wondrous surprise or an aortic rupture. Dr. Allan Stewart, M.D. of Columbia University Medical Center Department of Surgery performs innovative aortic surgery in the Manhattan, NYC area. Using this revolutionary procedure means that the aorta no longer need be replaced with a Dacron graft.


Expertise in all types of acute and chronic aortic problems including:


- Acute Type A and Type B dissection
- Ascending aortic and arch aneurysms
- Aortic root reconstruction - including homograft procedures, valve sparing root replacement, and mechanical valve conduits


Traditionally, aortic surgery required that the aorta be replaced with a Dacron synthetic graft or a gradually deteriorating tissue replacement graft. Unfortunately, the use of synthetic replacement meant that patients would need to regularly take blood thinner for the rest of their lives. Even though the tissue graft doesn't require blood thinner however it would likely deteriorate to the point of necessitating repeat surgery within 10 years. Dr. Stewart makes it possible to repair instead of replacing the aorta, freeing the patient from a lifetime of complications, compromises and adjustments. With Dr. Stewart's treatment you save your life without having to give up living.


At Columbia University Medical Center Department of Surgery Dr. Allan Stewart, M.D. ensures that life after aortic surgery gives you the same freedoms there were before aortic surgery. It's your life and Dr. Stewart will make sure it stays that way. If you or a loved one is looking for an experienced and inventive heart surgeon in Manhattan, NYC area, call Columbia University Medical Center Department of Surgery today and find out what options are available for you.
