Dr. Mrinal Bandhu Das

Dr. Mrinal Bandhu Das is Senior Consultant - Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery at Manipal Hospital, Mukundapur, Kolkata, with 38 years of experience reported by current hospital-booking information. His qualifications include MBBS, MS in General Surgery and MCh in Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery, followed by advanced cardiac-surgical training in Australia.

His practice includes coronary artery bypass surgery, beating-heart CABG, heart-valve repair and replacement, mitral-valve repair and aortic surgery. He also performs selected minimally invasive cardiac procedures and vascular operations, including carotid endarterectomy, according to the patient's anatomy and cardiovascular risk.

Dr. Das has specialist experience in atrial-fibrillation surgery, redo cardiac procedures and complex coronary disease. For patients with combined coronary and valve disease, surgical planning may involve more than one procedure during the same operation. The approach depends on coronary anatomy, valve function, ventricular performance, aortic disease and previous cardiac treatment.

For a cardiac-surgery opinion, useful records include coronary angiography, echocardiography, CT aortography when relevant, rhythm monitoring and previous operative reports. The choice between CABG, valve repair or replacement, aortic surgery, rhythm surgery or non-surgical management requires specialist assessment.

Complex cases are commonly reviewed with cardiology, cardiac imaging, anaesthesia and intensive-care teams before surgery. Rehabilitation and long-term risk-factor management remain important after major cardiac surgery. Postoperative follow-up may include rhythm monitoring, echocardiography and structured cardiac rehabilitation according to the operation and recovery.
