Emergency Aortic Aneurysm Surgery, New York


The health of your heart is extremely important, directly affecting your overall health and wellbeing. Heart complications are always scary and you want to make sure you are treated with the highest quality care available especially when surgery is required. If you or a loved one has experienced an aortic aneurysm, it may be a very difficult time for you. Columbia University Medical Center is a national leader in performing this valve-sparing operation. With expert physicians on staff like Dr. Allen Stewart, MD., you are ensured quality treatment and care. Dr. Stewart is one of a very small group of medical experts in the country who is able to perform this kind of surgery. Since 2005, he has performed over 60 procedures with zero mortalities and no serious complications. He has helped hundreds of people in and around the New York, NY area. 


Still a fairly new procedure, aortic valve replacement surgery is an alternative to root replacement surgery. The surgery consists of removing the damaged section of aorta, while preserving the aortic valve. Since the aortic valve remains intact, anticoagulation therapy is not required. This results in a better quality of life for the patient. CUMC will work with each patient based on their individual needs to give them the best care possible. 


Under Dr. Stewart, the Aortic Surgery Program specializes in all types of acute and chronic aortic problems including: 



- Acute Type A and Type B dissection
- Ascending aortic aneurysms
- Arch aneurysms
- Aortic root reconstruction
- Homograft procedures
- Valve sparing root replacement
- Mechanical valve conduits


If you are in the New York, NY area and are looking for medical treatment you can trust, call Columbia University’s Medical Center. Nothing is more important than your health, and CUMC will make sure you are getting the care you deserve in a safe and welcoming environment. The expert medical team in the Aortic surgery program will provide you and your family the support and treatment you need during this hard time. Call CUMC to schedule an appointment today.
