Heart conditions affecting the heart's structure, such as valvular diseases or congenital defects, require the specialized expertise of structural cardiology. These issues can lead to significant complications, including heart failure or stroke, if left untreated. Through a combination of advanced diagnostic techniques and cutting-edge interventions, structural cardiologists are able to address these structural problems, improving the heart’s function. For example, minimally invasive procedures, such as transcatheter valve replacement or repair, allow for effective treatments without the need for open-heart surgery. These advancements are helping many patients avoid major surgical risks and return to a healthier life more quickly.
