Apollo Hospitals announces availability of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) for severe aortic stenosis patients in Madurai.
TAVI uses a thin catheter via the groin, avoids open‑chest surgery, shortens hospital stay and enables rapid recovery.
Dr Vivek Bose C, senior interventional cardiologist at Apollo Speciality Hospitals, calls TAVI a major advancement for high‑risk cardiac patients.
A 73‑year‑old patient reported walking to the garden within days, describing a return to normal life after the procedure.
