Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery: Transapical Aortic Valve Replacement
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery is less traumatic and therefore leads to quicker recovery. With the assistance of engineering technologies on devices, imaging, and robotics, in conjunction with surgical technique, minimally invasive cardiac surgery will improve clinical outcomes and expand the cohort of patients that can be treated. We used transapical aortic valve implantation as an example...
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 کاملMinimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery: A Safe Alternative for Aortic Valve
Over the past 50 years, surgical aortic valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass has been the most widely employed strategy for the treatment of symptomatic aortic stenosis. Advances in prosthetic technology have contributed to improvements both in valve design and in the techniques used in surgical implantation. More recently, minimally invasive surgery for aortic valve replacement has un...
متن کاملMinimally invasive valve surgery.
BACKGROUND Cardiac surgery has been the last area of clinical surgery to adopt and embrace minimally invasive surgical techniques. Since the onset of arterial embolectomy in 1965, arthroscopic knee surgery performed in 1975 and laparoscopic cholecystectomy in 1985, huge advances in videoscopic, thorascopic and small incision surgery has taken place in all specialties which now allow change in t...
