Aortic Surgery & Advanced Endovascular Repair

Specialized care for complex aortic diseases using advanced surgical and minimally invasive techniques

Expert Care for Complex Aortic Conditions

Dr Krishna Chaitanya K H has extensive experience in the management of complex aortic diseases, including aneurysms, dissections, and occlusive pathology involving the thoracic and abdominal aorta.

His practice includes open surgical repair, advanced endovascular techniques, and hybrid procedures for patients with challenging anatomy and high surgical risk.

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is an abnormal dilatation of the aorta that can lead to life-threatening complications if untreated. Management depends on size, location, and patient risk factors.

Treatment Options:

  • Open surgical repair
  • Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR)
  • Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR)
  • Fenestrated and branched endovascular repair
  • Hybrid aortic procedures

Aortic Dissection

Aortic dissection is a serious condition that requires timely diagnosis and individualized treatment.

Management Includes:

  • Medical management and surveillance
  • Open surgical repair
  • Endovascular repair (especially Type B)
  • Hybrid procedures
  • Management of chronic dissection

Advanced Endovascular Aortic Repair

Endovascular repair allows treatment of many aortic conditions using minimally invasive techniques, reducing the need for major open surgery in selected patients.

Procedures Include:

  • EVAR (Endovascular Aneurysm Repair)
  • TEVAR (Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair)
  • Fenestrated EVAR (FEVAR)
  • Branched endovascular repair
  • Endovascular treatment of dissection
  • Hybrid aortic repair

Fenestrated & Complex Aortic Repair

Patients with complex anatomy such as juxtarenal or thoracoabdominal aneurysms may require customized endovascular or hybrid procedures.

Experience Includes:

  • Fenestrated EVAR
  • Thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair
  • Hybrid arch procedures
  • Redo aortic surgery
  • Management of failed previous repairs

Training, Workshops & Academic Involvement

Dr Krishna Chaitanya is actively involved in academic and training activities related to aortic and endovascular surgery.

He participates as faculty in national and international conferences, conducts training programs, and is involved in proctorship for complex aortic interventions.

He regularly conducts the ACET (Aster Comprehensive EndoAorta Training Program) focused on advanced endovascular and complex aortic procedures.

Approach to Aortic Care

Management of aortic disease requires careful evaluation, advanced imaging, and individualized treatment planning.

Both open and minimally invasive approaches are considered to provide the safest and most effective outcomes for each patient.
