PTCA Treatment in India

Coronary Angioplasty is typically recommended if the patient has severe and frequent chest pain (angina) that is not being cured by medicine or lifestyle changes. Also if it is found that blood flow to an area of the heart is being reduced due to a clogged artery then Angioplasty can be the likely solution. Coronary Angioplasty is a medical procedure to open up blocked or narrowed coronary arteries thereby restoring blood flow to the heart muscle. It is a minimally invasive procedure. The term Angioplasty means using a balloon to open a narrowed artery or blood vein. Angioplasty also involves the insertion of a stent (a short wire mesh tube) into the artery. The stent is left permanently in the artery to allow blood to flow more freely. Coronary angioplasty is also known as Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA). When combined with stenting it is known as Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI).
