      Truncus Arteriosus Treatment cost in India starts from US $ 8,000 and varies depending on the child’s medical history and condition, surgeon, hospital and the city where you choose to get the surgery done.

      Factors that affect Truncus Arteriosus Repair Cost in India:

      • Paediatric Cardiac Surgeon’s Fees

        An important expense when it comes to your child’s Truncus Arteriosus Repair cost is going to be your paediatric cardiac surgeon’s fees. IndiCure recommends only experienced, skilled, board-certified surgeons who are capable of delivering successful heart surgeries. Although the charges may vary depending on the experience of the surgeon, you can be completely assured of being in safe and experienced hands when you choose heart surgery in India with IndiCure.

      • Type of Surgical Approach

        With the hopes of improving patient care, new techniques and technologies are often introduced to the surgical process. Such innovative advancements in the surgical approach can increase costs.

      • Surgical Facility

      How It Works

      What is Truncus Arteriosus Repair ?

      Body-heart-lungs-heart-body-heart-body-heart-body-heart-body-.The blood leaving the heart does not follow this pattern when a person has a truncus arteriosus. Instead of two separate vessels for the lungs and body, it simply has one. There is no unique channel to the lungs for oxygen before returning to the heart to provide oxygen to the body because there is only one artery.

      Truncus arteriosus is a rare congenital defect. It occurs in approximately 1 in 10,000 births and affects baby boys and girls equally. Healthcare providers diagnose about 250 babies with this heart condition every year. The condition happens when your baby’s heart is developing in the pregnancy and is present at birth (congenital). The majority of the time, the cause is unknown.

      In addition, there is typically a hole between the two lower chambers of the heart, known as a ventricular septal defect. The oxygen-poor blood that should go to the lungs and the oxygen-rich blood that should go to the rest of the body are mixed as a result of truncus arteriosus. This causes serious circulation issues.

      Truncus arteriosus can be deadly if left untreated. Surgery is required to close the ventricular septal defect and separate blood flow to the body from blood flow to the lungs. Repairing a truncus arteriosus is usually successful, especially if done before your kid turns one month old.

      Signs and symptoms of truncus arteriosus often develop in the first few days of life. They include:

      • Blue coloring of the skin
      • Poor feeding
      • Pounding heart
      • Excessive sleepiness
      • Poor growth
      • Shortness of breath
      • Rapid breathing

      When is Truncus Arteriosus Repair required?

      Any patient with truncus arteriosus who are experiencing abnormal heart function, heart rhythm disturbances, high blood pressure in the lungs.

      How is Truncus Arteriosus Treatment done?

      The surgical repair of truncus arteriosus requires the use of heart-lung bypass machine support. It involves three major components:

      Steps

      • Separating the pulmonary arteries from the main truncus (the truncus will remain as the first part of the aorta).
      • Closure of the ventricular septal defect using a patch
      • Creating a connection between the right ventricle and the pulmonary arteries using a conduit, usually a homograft pulmonary artery.

      Most infants will require a period of very close monitoring in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit while their heart function recovers from the major reconstruction.

      What is the Recovery after Truncus Arteriosus Treatment like?

      It normally takes a few weeks to fully recover. The kid may require additional surgery in the future to replace the conduit or tube that connects the right ventricle and pulmonary artery that was placed. Your cardiologist may advise you to avoid participating in certain high-intensity competitive sports. Inquire with your cardiologist about which activities are safe.

      What Results Can I Expect from Truncus Arteriosus Treatment?

      Currently more than 90 percent of children survive repair of truncus arteriosus. Typically, there will be no physical restrictions imposed on the child.

      Questions to Ask

      We at IndiCure completely understand your concerns and it is always our endeavor to provide the best outcome for every patient. Following is the list of questions you must ask before you embark on your journey for Truncus Arteriosus Treatment in India.

      • Which language does the surgeon speak?
      • Is the treatment done in a well-equipped facility?
      • What treatment option is recommended for me?
      • What about the risks involved?
      • Does the surgeon use a certified anesthetist?
      • How long will the recovery period be?

      Preparation for the Surgery

      Prepare to answer questions about your:

      • Medical history and exams
      • Previous surgeries
      • Current medication review
      • History of smoking, drugs, or alcohol

      Patient Testimonials

      My dad was advised cardiac bypass surgery in CA, USA, but because of being uninsured, such high costs of cardiac surgery in the US, we were really not able to afford it. IndiCure has actually helped in saving my dad’s life and we are really grateful for the same.
      I am falling short of words, to express my gratitude to the surgeon who was very helpful and courteous.
      Will recommend IndiCure to everyone!

      – John Smith ( California, United States of America )
      Procedure : CABG surgery

      My son 4 years old was born with a heart defect which the doctors said needed a highly specialized surgery. Our cardiologist highly spoke of Indian surgeons and suggested us to go to India and in hindsight now I realize how right he was!
      My son was successfully operated and I must thank Indicure for the excellent arrangements they made.

      – Patricia Munene ( Ethiopia )
      Procedure : ToF surgery

      I would like to thank IndiCure for all they have done for my mother and me. Without IndiCure our stay would have been very difficult. They made our journey to India very pleasant and were always very attentive to our needs.
      I would recommend IndiCure to anybody wanting to come to India for medical treatment.

      – Sarah Jakada ( Zimbabwe )
      Procedure : Mitral Valve Replacement

      Thank you so much IndiCure for getting my baby free from the hole in her heart. We are looking forward to see her play and grow normally like other children.
      Really appreciate the care and help we received from Dr Ruchika and entire team of IndiCure.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      1. Is truncus arteriosus a life-threatening condition?

      The oxygen-poor blood that should go to the lungs and the oxygen-rich blood that should go to the rest of the body are intermingled as a result of truncus arteriosus. This causes serious circulation issues. Truncus arteriosus can be lethal if left untreated.

      2. How do you treat a truncus arteriosus problem?

      Truncus arteriosus requires surgery to be treated. Medications to reduce fluid in the lungs and high-calorie feedings to develop strength may be required while your baby waits for surgery. In the first few days or weeks of life, most newborns with truncus arteriosus require surgery.

      3. Is it possible for a baby to live with truncus arteriosus?

      Most babies will die if the truncus arteriosus is not corrected through surgery. The surgery to correct it is usually effective, and the majority of babies recover quickly. However, as babies grow, some will require more procedures.

      4. What indications and symptoms do you have if you have truncus arteriosus?
      • Breathing difficulties.
      • Pounding heart.
      • Pulse is weak.
      • Skin that is ashy or bluish in colour.
      • Poor apatite
      • Extreme drowsiness
      5. Is truncus arteriosus a hereditary condition?

      It is unknown what causes truncus arteriosus. Some cases may arise as a result of a complex combination of genetic and environmental variables, according to some theories (multifactorial inheritance).

      6. When is the ideal time to have truncus arteriosus surgery done?

      It’s best to have surgery before your baby turns two months old for the best results and outcomes.

      7. Will more surgeries be needed at a later date?

      The surgeon will place a conduit during the truncus arteriosus procedure. The conduit used to establish the pulmonary artery will need to be altered as the child develops, necessitating a second surgery.

      8. Can congenital heart defects be diagnosed before birth?

      If risk factors are recognized, a foetal echocardiography performed between 18 and 24 weeks of pregnancy can provide detailed information on the heart. This test usually takes about 45 minutes. Depending on the outcome, suitable measures and arrangements should be implemented in order to ensure the best prognosis.

You saved my sons life and I will be forever grateful for that, the care and service was immaculate. yes it can be a culture shock, in your another country. But it not any less of what we would have received here.

      Dr. Ruchika in India delivered efficient and professional service from the outset, matching up my weight and health concerns with the most amazing surgeon at the Apollo Spectra hospital in New Delhi, who made good all the promises that had been made, and MORE. All arrangements were executed seamlessly. Very glad I found them and will certainly be using them again, should the need arise.

      The IndiCure folks (Jagruti) hooked me up with THE BEST doctors for my heart issues. Period. The Physicians were thorough, professional, fast, proficient and affordable. Dealing with Indicure was super easy, super fast and a very pleasant experience. I HIGHLY recommend this process for those with no insurance or those who cannot afford the 20% co-pay for expensive procedures. Check the cost against prices in the USA folks.

We have never received such wonderful hospitality and always attending to our needs. We would both certainly recommend Indicure for any treatments and/or surgeries. We have been utterly amazed at what India has to offer and will definitely visit again.

Your team was instrumental in selling up my Dad with Dr. Babu and other healthcare team. Your Professionalism is exceptional. You responded to my all concerns within 24 hours; you reassured me everything would be okay when I needed it the most; you showed compassion that I have never seen before.
