The method of aortocoronary bypass using a hand vessel, which is used in many clinics around the world, was developed at the clinic Şişli Memorial.
Most aortocoronary bypass surgeries are performed with the AESOP robot. These procedures are minimally invasive and have a lower risk of complications. Şişli Memorial is also one of the few clinics that uses infrared cameras during surgeries, which improves the accuracy of the surgeon's work.
