In November 2024, specialists from the Republican Clinical Hospital of the Lugansk People's Republic (LPR) performed the first minimally invasive procedures to treat arterial stenosis, guided by colleagues from Almazov National Medical Research Centre.

Aortic stenosis (AS) is narrowing of the aortic valve, obstructing normal blood flow. If left untreated, this condition can lead to myocardial infarction and ischemic cerebrovascular disorders.

The primary treatment for aortic stenosis is surgery, involving aortic valve replacement. Previously, it was performed via an open heart procedure, involving a chest incision. Currently, minimally invasive methods are widely employed in Russia, with the implantation being performed through a femoral artery. The advantage of this method is low trauma, which reduces the risk of postoperative complications.

Under the guidance of Dmitry Zubarev, Head of the Department of Endovascular Diagnostic and Treatment Methods at Almazov Centre, Lugansk specialists have mastered the modern method of treatment.

As part of his working visit to the Lugansk People's Republic, a specialist of Almazov Centre visited the Republican Clinical Hospital, where he performed a number of surgical demonstrations. With Dmitry Zubarev's support, the first minimally invasive aortic valve replacement procedure was performed in the hospital's specialized department. The surgery was performed by Egor Atamanyuk, Head of the X-Ray Surgical Methods for Diagnosis and Treatment of the LPR Clinical Hospital. Surgeons from other hospitals in the Lugansk and Donetsk People's Republics attended the demonstrations. In just two days, five minimally invasive aortic valve implantation procedures were performed. All interventions were successful, and the function of the aortic valve in each patient was fully restored.

New high-tech treatments for severe heart defects and aortic aneurysms have been launched in new regions. These treatments will be available to patients directly in regional hospitals. Specialists from Almazov Centre are proud to share their experience and make a significant contribution to the development of healthcare in these new territories.
