About Ravinder Sadhu's Treatment

Mr Ravinder Sadhu came to Medicover Hospitals, Nashik, with symptoms of chest pain and extreme fatigue even while walking short distances. Upon specialist consultation with Dr Dhananjay Bansal, Consultant CTVS Surgeon, a diagnostic angiography confirmed three major heart blockages.

Dr Bansal guided the family through the treatment options available, including traditional bypass and the less invasive MICS CABG technique. With expert counseling and confidence in advanced cardiac care at Medicover, the family chose MICS CABG. The surgery was successful, and Mr Sadhu made a smooth and steady recovery, regaining a healthy and active routine.

In the Patient's Words

"I was experiencing chest pain and felt tired even with short walks. Dr Dhananjay Bansal explained the situation clearly after the angiography showed three blockages. He provided two options, conventional bypass and MICS CABG, and we chose the minimally invasive approach. The recovery was much easier than expected. I am grateful to Dr Bansal and the Medicover staff for their outstanding care and support throughout my treatment."

What is Chest Pain?

Chest pain, especially when combined with fatigue or breathlessness during activity, can be a warning sign of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). In CAD, plaque buildup reduces oxygen-rich blood flow to the heart muscle.

Common indicators include:

Pressure, tightness, or squeezing pain in the chest (angina)
Excessive fatigue or shortness of breath during routine activity
Pain radiating to jaw, arm, or back

To determine the severity and exact location of blockages, angiography is performed. Based on results, treatment may include medicines, angioplasty, or bypass surgery.

What Treatment Did We Provide to Ravinder Sadhu at Medicover?

To restore blood flow to the heart, Mr Ravinder Sadhu underwent Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS CABG). This advanced heart bypass technique avoids cutting through the breastbone, resulting in reduced pain, less blood loss, and quicker healing.

The treatment involved:

Angiography confirming triple-vessel disease
Expert counseling to choose MICS CABG over traditional sternotomy bypass
Small-incision bypass grafting to reroute blood around blocked arteries
Enhanced recovery through early mobility and cardiac rehabilitation

Thanks to timely intervention, skilled surgery, and dedicated post-operative care, Mr Sadhu is now living a healthier and more active life with a strong, steadily recovering heart.
