Heart Surgery

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the United States. If medical treatments or lifestyle changes haven't worked for you, heart surgery might be an option.

Heart surgery is recommended for many heart diseases and conditions and can be used to:

• Treat heart failure and coronary artery disease
• Control abnormal heart rhythms
• Implant medical devices, such as pacemakers
• Replace a damaged heart with a healthy one
