Trust your child’s heart to the dedicated team at AKFA Medline University Hospital, where innovation meets compassion in pediatric cardiac care.Advanced Technology
Our department is equipped with state-of-the-art tools to enhance diagnostic precision and surgical outcomes:
– BIS Monitoring: Used in anesthesiology to monitor the depth of anesthesia during medicated sleep.
– MSCT Tomography: Provides 3D heart visualization for detailed preoperative planning.

Comprehensive Surgical Services
We perform the full range of pediatric cardiac surgeries, including:
– Septal Defect Repairs: Minimally invasive and traditional corrections for ventricular and atrial septal defects.
– Complex and Combined Heart Defect Corrections: Surgical solutions for intricate congenital heart anomalies.
– Staged Treatments for Univentricular Defects: Multi-stage approaches for managing complex single-ventricle conditions.
– Valve Repairs and Replacements: Reconstructive surgeries and valve replacements for congenital valve disorders.
– Cyanotic Heart Defect Surgeries: Corrective procedures for blue baby syndrome and related conditions.
– Great Vessel Pathology Corrections: Advanced surgeries for congenital anomalies of the major blood vessels.

Minimally Invasive and Hybrid Procedures
Our department embraces modern surgical techniques, including:
– Minimally Invasive Approaches: Procedures such as ministernotomy for ventricular septal defect closure and lateral thoracotomy for atrial septal defect repair.
– Endovascular Interventions: Catheter-based corrections using occluder devices to treat defects like patent ductus arteriosus, atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects, and arteriovenous fistulas.
– Hybrid Procedures: Combining endovascular and traditional open-heart surgery for high-risk patients, with or without artificial circulation.

Expertise in Neonatal Cardiac Surgery
Our team specializes in treating the youngest and most vulnerable patients, including infants just days old. The smallest patient successfully operated on weighed only 2,100 grams. We continue to expand the age and weight limits for safe surgical interventions.

Research and Collaboration
Our specialists actively engage in joint scientific programs with leading research institutes, including the Russian Academy of Science, as well as American and European collaborators. Their work is frequently presented at international congresses, reflecting our commitment to advancing pediatric cardiac care.
