Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Replacement Versus Conventional Approach: Comparison of Early Postoperative Outcomes.

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Surgery

• Registration Number: NCT05504109
• Lead Sponsor: Sohag University

Brief Summary

The term minimally invasive mitral valve surgery has been reported (MIMVS) by American Heart Association and referred to a collection of new techniques. All of these new techniques aiming to reduce surgical trauma by minimizing surgical incision, modified perfusion methods and use of new instruments . The right anterior mini-thoracotomy is the most common approach, next to it the lower mini-sternotomy approach, then the parasternal incision or the left posterior thoracotomy approach .

Technically MIMVS is more complex, requires a special learning curve and associated with higher Incidence of neurological events, aortic dissection, groin complications and infection despite all these benefits . MIVS also has controversies among cardiac surgeons, because it makes the exposure worse and requires a more complex surgery, which may lead to a less satisfying effect
