Coronary Angioplasty – Treatment for Blocked Heart Arteries

Coronary angioplasty is a widely used procedure to treat narrowed or blocked coronary arteries caused by plaque buildup. Also known as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), it helps relieve chest pain and reduce the risk of heart attack. During the procedure, a catheter with a balloon is inserted into the artery and inflated at the blockage site, often followed by stent placement to maintain blood flow. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and usually requires a short hospital stay. Medicover Hospitals offers comprehensive coronary angioplasty services with skilled cardiology teams, advanced imaging, and structured post-procedure monitoring.
