Inclusion Criteria

1. patients with valvular insufficiency or stenosis scheduled for minimally invasive surgery via anterolateral minithoracotomy

2. patients suitable for both femoral and axillary cannulation of the heart-lung machine (i.e., no relevant calcifications of the iliac leg vessels and the aorta, sufficient vascular diameter)

Exclusion Criteria

1. vascular access site that is anatomically unsuitable for cannulation in the femoral or axillary artery
2. patients with vascular calcifications
3. higher grade stenoses in the para-aortic vessels
4. pre-interventional complications at the vascular access site (before the actual minimally invasive valve replacement/reconstruction procedure)
5. unstable active bleeding or bleeding diathesis or significant unmanageable anemia
6. lack of capacity of the patient to give consent
