Bandar Dato' Onn Specialist Hospital is thrilled to share incredible news from our Cath Lab today! Our esteemed resident Cardiologist, Dr. Azrina Abdul Kadir, together with Prof. Datoโ Dr. Muhamad Ali Bin S.K. Abdul Kader from Hospital Serdang, successfully completed a challenging CTO (Chronic Total Occlusion) case.
CTO refers to a complete blockage in a coronary artery that has been present for a prolonged period, typically more than three months. These blockages can significantly reduce blood flow to the heart, leading to severe chest pain, shortness of breath, and a lower quality of life.
The CTO procedure, a specialized form of angioplasty, is crucial as it reopens these long-standing blockages, restores vital blood flow, and often provides profound relief from symptoms when other treatments may not suffice.
If you or a loved one are experiencing persistent cardiac symptoms, donโt hesitate to seek expert evaluation. Contact us today at +607-301 1000 to schedule an appointment.
