In a historic achievement for Rajasthan's medical sector, doctors at Eternal Hospital, Jaipur, have successfully performed the state's first Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement (TTVR), eliminating the need for traditional open-heart surgery. This advancement marks a significant milestone in minimally invasive heart procedures.
Dr. Prem Ratan Degawat, leading the operation, reported that a 57-year-old patient, previously subjected to multiple open-heart surgeries, was treated with TTVR due to severe risks associated with further surgical interventions. The quick, 30-minute procedure allowed a rapid recovery, with discharge occurring just three days post-operation.
