La Clinique du Millénaire propose une nouvelle option de traitement pour les patients à risques souffrant d’insuffisance mitrale qui ne peuvent pas subir de chirurgie à coeur ouvert. Seuls quatre établissements privés en France sont dotés de cette technologie.
The Clinique du Millénaire (Oc Santé group), located in Montpellier, offers a new treatment option for patients suffering from mitral insufficiency who cannot undergo open heart surgery: they can now benefit from transcatheter mitral valve replacement surgery.
The establishment has in fact equipped itself with the TendyneTM system which offers a less invasive surgical solution to patients. During the operation, doctors access the heart through a small incision in the chest to treat the MI by replacing the mitral valve with an artificial valve, without resorting to extracorporeal circulation.
Latest-generation technical platform
The benefits for the patient are multiple: less recovery time, less pain and even less risk of bleeding and infection.
This cutting-edge care is possible thanks to the clinic's specialist teams (cardiologists, interventional cardiologists and cardiac surgeons) and its latest-generation technical platform, like the best hospitals in the country. In France, only four private establishments, including the Millénaire clinic, carry out this type of intervention.
