Cuban Surgeons Perform Successful Heart Surgeries
Monday, November 15, 2010

Havana.- Cuban surgeons have performed minimal-access heart surgeries successfully since 1985, reporting a survival rate of 97 percent.

According to Cuban experts, complications from that kind of surgical procedure are comparable to those reported in developed countries.

Minimal-access heart surgeries are performed in seven heart centers in Havana, as well as in Santiago de Cuba and Villa Clara.

In addition, Cuban professionals wrote a manual on heart surgery to be consulted by surgeons nationwide.

Interventionist cardiology allows treating certain heart diseases, including ischemic cardiopathies, using catheters.
