Heart Valve Surgery

There are four valves in your heart:

  • Aortic valve
  • Mitral valve
  • Tricuspid valve
  • Pulmonary valve

Heart valve surgery is used to repair or replace diseased heart valves.

Blood that flows between different chambers of your heart must flow through a heart valve.

Blood that flows out of your heart into large arteries must flow through a heart valve.

These valves open up enough so that blood can flow through.
They then close, keeping blood from flowing backward.
