Higher-risk mitral valve operations after previous sternotomy: endoscopic, minimally invasive approach improves patient outcomes.
BACKGROUND Reoperative mitral valve (MV) surgery is associated with significant morbidity and mortality; however, endoscopic minimally invasive surgical techniques may preserve the surgical benefits of conventional mitral operations while potentially reducing perioperative risk and length of stay (LOS) in hospital. METHODS We compared the outcomes of consecutive patients who underwent reopera...
متن کاملMitral valve operation via Port Access versus median sternotomy.

A study was therefore designed to delineate differences in outcome from mitral operation via Port Access versus sternotomy in comparable patients. METHODS The records of 41 consecutive patients undergoing isolated mitral valve replac...

متن کاملIs a minimally invasive approach for mitral valve surgery more cost-effective than median sternotomy?
A best evidence topic in cardiac surgery was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was: is a minimally invasive approach for mitral valve surgery more cost-effective than median sternotomy? Altogether, 51 studies were found using the reported search, of which 7 represented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The authors, journal, date and country of p...
متن کاملMarcus-gunn phenomenon with- mitral valve prolapse
Marcus-gunn phenomenon is a congenital and sometimes hereditary anomaly, in which a ptotic eyelid retracts momentarily when the mouth is open, or the jaw is moved. These associated movements attributed to abnormal connections between the central mechanisms innervating the pterygoid and elevator muscles. Sometimes this anomaly is associated with dual,s retraction syndrome, duplex kindneys and ur...
