AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Minimally Invasive and Endoscopic Cardiac Surgery
Modern surgical procedures performed by Dr. Taha Özkara without cutting the breastbone, utilizing small incisions and advanced 3D endoscopic camera systems.
Bypass coronario endoscópico
Beating-heart endoscopic coronary bypass surgery performed through a small incision small incision between the left ribs without a heart-lung machine and without sternotomy.
Cirugía endoscópica de válvula mitral
Closed endoscopic mitral valve surgery performed through a small incision small incision under the right breast using 3D high-resolution camera guidance without cutting the breastbone, primarily focusing on repairing and preserving the natural valve.
Cirugía endoscópica de válvula aórtica
Minimally invasive aortic valve repair and sutureless replacement performed through a small incision small incision via right mini-thoracotomy or upper mini-sternotomy without cutting the entire ribcage.
Cirugía endoscópica de válvula tricúspide
Endoscopic tricuspid valve annuloplasty and repair performed under 3D video guidance through a small incision without opening the chest bone, restoring normal right heart hemodynamics.
Cirugía mínimamente invasiva de aorta
Minimally invasive ascending aorta and root aneurysm surgery performed through upper mini-sternotomy, eliminating aneurysm rupture risk while preserving thoracic structural integrity.
Reparación endovascular de aorta (EVAR/TEVAR)
Catheter-based endovascular aortic repair (EVAR / TEVAR) for abdominal and thoracic aneurysms, deploying custom stent-grafts via a simple groin puncture without open surgery.
Enfermedad arterial periférica
Advanced interventional catheter therapies for peripheral artery disease (PAD), opening blocked leg arteries with drug-eluting balloons, atherectomy, and stents without surgery.
Cirugía endoscópica de cardiopatías congénitas
Endoscopic closure of atrial septal defects (ASD) through a small incision small incision under the right breast using autologous pericardium, delivering total anatomical correction without sternotomy.
Reoperaciones cardíacas endoscópicas
Endoscopic re-operative heart surgery performed through right mini-thoracotomy between the ribs for patients with prior open-heart surgery, eliminating sternal re-entry catastrophe risks.
