valvotomy
Valvotomy is a surgical procedure to repair or remove a damaged or diseased valve in the heart or blood vessels. This procedure is generally used to treat conditions such as stenosis, where the valve becomes narrowed, restricting blood flow. Valvotomy can be performed through open-heart surgery or a less invasive method where a small tube called a catheter is inserted through a blood vessel and guided to the affected valve.
