Successful Treatment of CAD with a Non-Surgical Procedure – PCI

Mr. Mohidul Islam is a vibrant 70-year-old gentleman who has always lived an active lifestyle. He began to experience some tiredness and chest tightness. Despite these concerning signs, the idea of a heart condition never crossed his mind. As the persistent symptoms became too much to bear, Mr. Mohidul sought medical attention. The investigations confirmed the diagnosis of Triple Vessel Disease, revealing blockages in his coronary arteries. Despite this significant health concern, Mr. Mohidul’s next challenge was finding the right place for treatment. Through his friend’s recommendation, he discovered Vejthani Hospital. Typically, the gold standard for treating Triple Vessel Disease is coronary artery bypass surgery, a procedure that involves open-heart surgery. When Mr. Mohidul consulted with Dr. Anuruck Jeamanukoolkit, an Interventional Cardiologist at Vejthani, the recommended treatment was coronary artery bypass surgery. However, his intense fear of open heart surgery made him firmly refuse it. In response to Mr. Mohidul’s fears and with a commitment to finding the most suitable solution, Dr. Anuruck proposed Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). This non-surgical procedure involves the insertion of a catheter, ballooning, and stenting, providing a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery. Not only does Percutaneous Coronary Intervention have a faster recovery time, but it also carries a lower risk of complications. Following his successful treatment at Vejthani, Mr. Mohidul returned home with improved health and satisfaction as the outcome exceeded his expectations.
