Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery is performed for cardiac procedures through a small incision similar to laparoscopy for abdominal surgeries to facilitate faster wound healing, early recovery, better cosmesis, and early resumption of work.

Anaesthesia for Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) has been used since the 1990s and encompasses a wide range of techniques that lack full sternotomy, including valve and coronary artery graft surgery as well as transcatheter procedures.

Safety and Efficacy of the Transaxillary Access for Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Surgery
Background and Objectives: Transaxillary access is one of the latest innovations for minimally invasive aortic valve replacement (MICS-AVR). This study compares clinical performance in a large transaxillary MICS-AVR group to a propensity-matched ...

A Modified Ascending Aortic Cannulation Technique in Minimally Invasive Totally Thoracoscopic Cardiac Surgery [PDF]
Cannulation through the femoral artery is the preferred method of establishing peripheral cardiopulmonary bypass in minimally invasive totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery. However, faced with the contraindication of femoral artery cannulation, modified

Minimally invasive cardiac surgery
Coronary artery bypass grafts, performed to alleviate blockages or stenoses in coronary arteries, have come a long way since the mid-1960s. The first operations performed were left internal mammary artery anastomoses to the left anterior descending artery by Kosolov in Leningrad and by Favalore at the Cleveland Clinic.

Effect of Obesity Duration and BMI Trajectories on Cardiovascular Disease: A Narrative Review
Obesity is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). It is crucial to understand the impact of its duration due to the more extended exposure period and the higher frequency of overweight/obesity at younger ages.

Is There a Future for Minimal Access and Robots in Cardiac Surgery?
Minimally invasive techniques in cardiac surgery have found increasing use in recent years. Both patients and physicians often associate smaller incisions with improved outcomes (i.e., less risk, shorter hospital stay, and a faster recovery). Videoscopic
