Coronary angioplasty through Radial approach and Femoral approach

Coronary Angioplasty Treatment in Mukundapur

Coronary Angioplasty is a medical procedure to open a blockage in a coronary artery narrowed by atherosclerosis. This improves blood flow to the heart. Atherosclerosis occurs when plaque builds up inside the artery walls, affecting various arteries, including the coronary arteries, which supply oxygen-rich blood to the heart. When it involves the coronary arteries, it leads to coronary artery disease (CAD).

Angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that restores blood flow to the heart by opening the blocked artery. A small catheter is inserted through blood vessels, typically in the wrist (radial approach) or leg (femoral approach), to reach the heart. Unlike open-heart surgery, it requires no major incisions.
