What is PTCA Surgery?
PTCA(Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty) surgery is a non-surgical procedure used to treat narrowed coronary arteries. A catheter with a small balloon is inserted into the artery and inflated to widen the blocked area, improving blood flow. It is often combined with stent placement to keep the artery open. PTCA is recommended for patients with coronary artery disease, angina, or those at risk of heart attacks. The procedure is safe, quick, and highly effective in restoring normal heart function.
