Mr Alberto Albanese is an experienced heart surgeon. He offers a wide range of procedures to treat every heart condition.

Angiogram dr Alberto Albanese Consultant Cardiac Surgeon International Heart Clinic

Coronary artery disease (blocked arteries)

Coronary disease is the narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, usually caused by atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis (sometimes called “hardening” or “clogging” of the arteries) is the buildup of fatty deposits (called plaques) on the inner walls of the arteries.

Aortic Valve disease dr Alberto Albanese Consultant Cardiac Surgeon International Heart Clinic

Aortic valve disease

Aortic valve disease is a condition in which the valve between the main pumping chamber of the heart (left ventricle) and the main artery of the body (aorta) doesn’t work properly. The valve can either be narrowed (stenosis) or leaking (regurgitation).

Tricuspid disease dr Alberto Albanese Consultant Cardiac Surgeon International Heart Clinic

Tricuspid valve disease

Tricuspid valve disease is a condition in which the valve between the right heart chambers of the heart (right atrium and right ventricle) doesn’t work properly. This valve may sometimes be leaking (regurgitation).

Aortic Aneurysm repair dr Alberto Albanese Consultant Cardiac Surgeon International Heart Clinic

Aortic aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is an abnormal bulge that occurs in the wall of the major blood vessel (aorta) that carries blood from the heart to the body. When it excessively increases in size, due to high blood pressure, it can burst (aortic rupture or dissection), which is a life-threatening condition.

Atrial septal defects dr Alberto Albanese Consultant Cardiac Surgeon International Heart Clinic

Atrial septal defects

An atrial septal defect (ASD) is a hole in the wall (septum) between the two upper chambers of the heart (left atrium and right atrium). The condition is present at birth (congenital).

myxoma dr Alberto Albanese Consultant Cardiac Surgeon International Heart Clinic

Cardiac tumours

Cardiac tumours are growths in the heart muscle or its adjacent structures. They are divided into benign and malignant. The most common tumour is atrial myxoma, but there are many other types including lipomas, fibromas, rhabdomyomas and papillary fibroelastomas.

ventricular tachycardia dr Alberto Albanese Consultant Cardiac Surgeon International Heart Clinic

Arrhythmia (irregular heart rhythm)

An arrhythmia is a problem with the rhythm of the heartbeat. During an arrhythmia, the heart can beat too fast, too slowly, or with an irregular rhythm. When a heart beats too fast, the condition is called tachycardia. When a heart beats too slowly, the condition is called bradycardia.
