Procedures Introduced By Dr Lal

Dr. Lal's Innovations

Dr. Purshotam Lal has introduced over 20 procedures in interventional cardiology, transforming cardiac care in India and providing patients with numerous treatment options.

Non-Surgical Heart Hole ASD Closure

Dr. (Prof.) Purshotam Lal pioneered a non-surgical method to close atrial septal defects (ASDs), a congenital heart condition, using catheter-based techniques, eliminating the need for open-heart surgery

TAVI/TAVR With Core Valve

Hybrid Case Using Venibri Valve

Slow Rotational Angioplasty

Introduced in November 1989, this technique involves the use of a specialized catheter with a rotating tip to clear blockages in coronary arteries, offering a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery

Non-Surgical PDA Closure

Dr. (Prof.) Purshotam Lal introduced a modified technique for non-surgical closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in September 1990, offering a safer and less invasive option for patients with this congenital heart defect

Coronary Atherectomy

This procedure, pioneered by Dr. (Prof.) Purshotam Lal, involves the removal of plaque buildup from coronary arteries using a catheter-based device, restoring blood flow and reducing the risk of heart attacks

Supported High Risk Angioplasty

Mitral Valvuloplasty - Inoue Balloon

Developed by Dr. Inoue and introduced to India by Dr. (Prof.) Purshotam Lal, this procedure involves using a specialized balloon catheter to widen narrowed mitral valves, improving blood flow and relieving symptoms of mitral stenosis

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt

Coronary Stenting

Dr. (Prof.) Purshotam Lal introduced coronary stenting as a less invasive alternative to bypass surgery, involving the placement of a small mesh tube (stent) to support narrowed or weakened arteries, improving blood flow to the heart

Non-Surgical Left Atrio

Athreo Abrasion - Diamond Drilling

Dr. (Prof.) Purshotam Lal developed this innovative technique, which combines atherectomy and abrasion, to effectively treat complex coronary artery disease by removing plaque and smoothing vessel walls, promoting better blood flow

PullBack Athrectomy

Implanted 24-Carat Gold Stent

Acolysis

Angiogenesis

Repairing of Non-Surgically Repairing Aneurysms

Heart Hole Closure (VSD)

Endomyocardial Biopsy with Echo-Guidance

Intra Coronary Hydrolysis

Multiple Heart Hole Closure

The Concept of Metro Coronary Screening

Percutaneous Transmyocardial Revascularization

Intravascular Red Laser Light Therapy

Local Drug Delivery Catheter (Genie)

Dr. (Prof.) Purshotam Lal, known as India’s top heart doctor, revolutionized heartcare with new innovations and ideas, winning awards like Padma Bhushan & Padma Vibhushan.
