Cardiovascular Surgery · 2:24
Atıf Sarın, who lived for 3 months without knowing it with a major vascular tear affecting both his heart and brain, regained his health thanks to a successful heart surgery performed by Prof. Dr. Ali Fedakar. Atıf Sarın, who had a vascular tear in his heart and lived with it for 3 months without noticing, was found to have a torn aorta after a heart check-up he happened to have at his wife's insistence, and was taken into emergency surgery. Prof. Dr. Ali Fedakar, who performed the operation with great success, said: "I have been working in cardiovascular surgery for about 30 years. This is the first time I have encountered a patient who walked around for 3 months after such a major tear in a heart vessel before coming to the hospital. When he came by chance for his wife's check-up, we learned that Mr. Atıf had suffered coughing fits 3 months earlier and that, although he had gone to a hospital, nothing had been detected. We immediately had an emergency echo performed and found that the vessels branching from the great artery to the brain were torn. We took our patient into surgery right away." Our patient, who regained his health with a successful operation, expressed his thanks to Prof. Dr. Ali Fedakar, who stood by him throughout this process, and to the entire Hisar Hospital Intercontinental family. As the Hisar Hospital Intercontinental family, we wish our patient healthy days together with his loved ones.
