Structural cardiology addresses a wide range of heart conditions related to the heart's anatomy, such as valve disorders and septal defects. This field has witnessed significant innovations, particularly in minimally invasive techniques that offer patients safer and faster recovery options. In structural cardiology, treatment modalities focus on repairing or replacing damaged valves, correcting congenital defects, or managing structural changes resulting from heart disease. The integration of new technologies, including advanced imaging and device-based therapies, is allowing for more precise interventions and improved outcomes for patients, even those with complex conditions. The field continues to evolve, bringing new hope to individuals facing structural heart problems.
