Understanding Keyhole Heart Surgery
Keyhole heart surgery, also known as minimally invasive cardiac surgery, is now a very well established approach to treating heart conditions that offers significant advantages over traditional open-heart procedures when performed by skilled teams.
At The Keyhole Heart Clinic London, we specialise in this advanced technique, providing Nigerian patients with world-class cardiac care that prioritises faster recovery, reduced pain, and minimal scarring.
Unlike traditional open-heart surgery, which requires breaking the breastbone to access the heart, keyhole heart surgery involves making small incisions between the ribs which do not require bone break.
Led by world renowned surgeon Mr Inder Birdi, we use specialised instruments and cameras to perform intricate procedures through these small openings, resulting in less trauma to surrounding tissues
Benefits for Nigerian Patients
Faster Recovery
Keyhole heart surgery is the dramatically reduced recovery time. While traditional open-heart surgery typically requires a 12-week healing period, patients who undergo keyhole procedures can often return to normal activities within just 3-4 weeks.
Minimal Scarring
For many patients, the cosmetic outcome is an important consideration. Keyhole heart surgery typically results in a scar as small as 3 inches, compared to the 12-inch scar left by traditional open-heart surgery.
Reduced Pain and Complications
Keyhole heart surgery results in significantly less pain compared to traditional methods. The smaller incisions also lead to reduced bleeding and a lower risk of infection, particularly bone infections associated with breastbone division.
Advanced Treatments Available
At The Keyhole Heart Clinic, we offer a comprehensive range of cardiac procedures using minimally invasive techniques, including: Valve repairs and replacements (mitral, aortic, tricuspid), Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), Atrial fibrillation treatment and Aortic aneurysm.
“I can honestly say that the treatment I received from Mr Birdi & his medical team has been outstanding. Mr Birdi has given me a new lease of life.”

Mr Birdi has successfully completed nearly 2,000 keyhole surgeries over the last 20 years.
