An aneurysm is probably the most horrifying heart condition that someone can be diagnosed with. No person should have to live through the unimaginable fright of not knowing whether the next thing to make their heart skip a beat will be an aortic rupture. Dr. Allan Stewart, M.D. of Columbia University Medical Center Department of Surgery offers an innovative aortic surgery to the families of Manhattan, NY. Utilizing a revolutionary procedure, Dr. Stewart helps people have comfortable lives after their surgery. If you're looking for a heart surgeon with vision and expertise in the Manhattan community, contact the Columbia University Medical Center Department of Surgery today.


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


Before the advent of valve sparing aortic repair surgery aneurysm treatment required patients to have their aorta artery replaced with a synthetic Dacron graft or natural tissue replacement. Lamentably, the use of synthetic Dacron grafts causes patients to need to regularly take blood anticoagulants for the rest of their lives. Natural tissue replacement does not necessitate the use of anticoagulants. However, the tissue will break down to the point of requiring surgery again within ten years. Dr. Stewart's treatment makes it possible to repair instead of replacing the aorta artery, sparing the patient the misery of a life filled with postoperative adjustments, compromises and complications. This allows the patient to walk out of surgery without being held back by their condition.


Dr. Stewart saves patients' lives without forcing them to give up living. At the Columbia University Medical Center Department of Surgery Dr. Allan Stewart, M.D. makes sure that life after aortic surgery yields the same freedoms you had before aortic surgery.
