Dr. Giorgos Shiakos, Head of the Cardiosurgical ICU, talks about the Heart ICU at the Cardiac Innovation Center in Apollonio Hospital — a specialized cardiac unit that follows international standards and provides focused, safe, and personalized care.

In both cases, this was accompanied by situs ambiguous, an even rarer anatomical variation. These are the kinds of cases a cardiac surgeon may never encounter in an entire career — yet they presented twice within one week at our center.
