An atrial septal defect is a congenital abnormality. It is caused by the presence of an abnormal opening between the right and left heart chambers. Depending on the severity of the defect, it may not manifest itself at all, or may cause dyspnea, heart murmurs and other symptoms.

Coronary angioplasty and stenting is a method of treating coronary artery disease by restoring blood flow in the narrowed vessel that supplies blood to the heart. A heart catheterization is used to determine whether the procedure is indicated in each particular case.

An artificial heart valve is a genuinely handmade work, a true masterpiece of doctor and scientist work. These implants, which are created by long and painstaking effort, save lives when one's own organ ceases to perform its natural "gateway" function.

Dear Professor Weymann, Thank you very much for your video consultation. It helped a lot to make a decision about my valve surgery, my doc had told me many times I’d needed it, but it was kind of hard to bring myself to do it. I guess I was not the first one to seek a second opinion in such a situation, but for me it was crucial indeed, I am feeling much better now.

Профессор Вайманн – просто чудо! Я так рада, что решила воспользоваться его советом! У моего ребенка врожденный порок сердца, надеялись, что обойдется без операции, но состояние начало ухудшаться, и пришлось обратиться к хирургам. Сразу столько вопросов, перерыли с отцом интернет, пишут то одно, то другое. Среди разных вариантов обратили внимание на возможность получить второе мнение за рубежом. В нашем случае это было даже не второе, а еще одно. Но самое ценное! Сначала отправили доктору через Медконс все заключения и снимки, потом была видеоконференция. Самое главное, профессор сразу сказал, что бояться не надо, сына можно вылечить! Рассказал, как проходит операция, какие есть варианты, как будет проходить восстановление. Теперь уже все позади, сынок чувствует себя прекрасно. Рекомендуем всем советоваться с профессором Вайманном!
