Advanced Surgical Treatment for Chronic Pulmonary Blood Clots
Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy (PTE) is a specialized heart-lung surgery to remove chronic blood clots from the pulmonary arteries, a leading cause of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Untreated, CTEPH increases lung pressure, reduces oxygen delivery, and strains the heart, leading to heart failure and limited quality of life. At HeartBridge Surgical Network, we provide world-class PTE surgery in Nigeria, restoring lung and heart function.
The Problem We Address

-
Shortness of breath and fatigue
