Valvular Disease

Our UCSF-affiliated surgeons have many years of experience and are skilled in the repair or replacement of all diseased heart valves. At Washington Hospital we have the ability to offer our patients the option of a traditional open sternotomy or a minimally invasive (small incisions) valve surgery.

Procedures performed:

• Mitral Valve Repair or Replacement
• Mitral Valve Annuloplasty
• Aortic Valve Repair or Replacement
• Tricuspid Valve Replacement
• Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR)
  • TAVR is an example of a minimally invasive procedure. More details here.
