Cardiovascular Surgery

Overview

 Surgical therapy plays a major role in management of cardiovascular disease. We focus on heart failure, which is a rapidly growing epidemic problem. Multidisciplinary approach including surgical operation, artificial organ and regenerative medicine is mandatory for better patient management. We conduct both clinical and basic research on these aspects and expand our laboratory works into clinical practice as a translational research.
 Decreasing surgical invasiveness is another key for obtaining better surgical outcomes. We employ minimally invasive treatment modalities including minimally invasive surgery, percutaneous vascular or valve treatment and propose new application of these options.
 Our training program accept 3-year course on all aspect of cardiovascular surgery, including congenital, coronary, valvular, vascular, and heart failure operations in collaboration with affiliated hospitals.
