CTVS stands for Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery. It includes operations involving the heart, lungs, chest and major blood vessels.

The department provides procedures such as CABG, heart-valve repair and replacement, surgical ASD closure, redo cardiac operations, surgery for atrial fibrillation and pulmonary thromboendarterectomy. The appropriate procedure depends on the patient's diagnosis and clinical assessment.

Angioplasty is a catheter-based procedure used to open narrowed coronary arteries. CABG is an operation that creates a new route for blood to flow around significant blockages. A heart team may recommend one approach based on the number and location of blockages, symptoms, heart function and other health conditions.

Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is available for selected procedures such as lobectomy, segmentectomy and decortication. Suitability is decided after clinical and imaging assessment.
