KCTV: Saint Luke’s Patient Avoids Third Open Heart Surgery Thanks to Minimally Invasive Procedure
Born with congenital heart disease, 41-year-old Christin Murphy has undergone three heart surgeries to repair pulmonary valves. They have been tough to get through, but Murphy says this latest one at Saint Luke’s changed her outlook.
This time, Anthony Magalski, MD, cardiologist at Saint Luke’s Mid America Heart Institute, and the interventional cardiology team recommended a minimally invasive approach for her heart valve replacement. KCTV talked with Christin and Dr. Magalski about Christin's story.
