Minimally invasive aortic valve replacement (AVR) compared to standard AVR.
OBJECTIVES Minimally invasive cardiac surgery has been developed to offer patients the benefits of open heart operations with decreased pain and limited skin incision. A limited superior median sternotomy has been shown to provide a good exposure for aortic valve replacement (AVR) and good results. In this study we report the results of minimally invasive AVR compared to standard sternotomy AVR...
متن کاملMinimally invasive transaortic mitral valve repair during aortic valve replacement.
Herein, we report the case of a 77-year-old man who presented with congestive heart failure. Echocardiography and cardiac catheterization revealed severe aortic stenosis with severe mitral regurgitation and a left ventricular ejection fraction of 0.20. Because of comorbidities, the patient was considered to be at high risk for double-valve surgery. In order to reduce the operative risk, a minim...
متن کاملIs a minimally invasive approach for re-operative aortic valve replacement superior to standard full resternotomy?
A best-evidence topic in cardiac surgery was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was 'is a minimally invasive approach for re-operative aortic valve replacement (AVR) superior to standard full resternotomy?' A total of 193 papers were found using the reported search of which 13 represented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The authors, country, jo...
متن کامل1 Post Aortic Valve Replacement ( AVR ) : Are Gradients Important ? What Is ?
Aortic valve replacement (AVR) is one of the most commonly performed cardiac surgical procedures. A standardized TEE approach to aortic prosthesis interrogation is helpful but the echocardiographer must also frequently use off-axis imaging and consider additional diagnostic modalities if TEE image quality is suboptimal, if prosthesis visualization is confounded by acoustic shadowing, or if conc...
متن کامل[Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement Via Right Mini-thoracotomy].
Here we demonstrate our surgical procedure of minimally invasive aortic valve replacement through right anterolateral mini-thoracotomy. Preoperative evaluation of the whole aorta by contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan is important to prevent cerebrovascular complications. The patient is set in a mild left lateral decubitus position. A skin incision is made along the anterior axillary lin...
