Perfusion during coronary and mitral valve surgery utilizing minimally invasive Port-Access technology.

چکیده
Minimally invasive surgery has been used in the treatment of some cardiovascular diseases. Port-Access surgery is a new minimally invasive technique that utilizes cardiopulmonary by-pass and a specialized catheter system that provides cardiopulmonary support and myocardial preservation. Extrathoracic cardiopulmonary support is established with femero-femoral bypass with kinetic assisted venous drainage. An endovascular catheter system allows for all the benefits of mechanical support as well as myocardial preservation. This catheter system includes an endoaortic balloon catheter which functions as an aortic cross clamp and antegrade cardioplegia delivery catheter, endopulmonary vent, and endocoronary sinus catheter used for administration of retrograde cardioplegia. An initial cohort of 20 patients was treated by the Port-Access surgical approach with cardiopulmonary bypass. Ten patients had coronary artery surgery and 10 patients had mitral valve surgery. The average bypass times were 94.4 min (coronary artery) and 152.8 min (mitral valve). The mean aortic occlusion times were 49.7 min (coronary artery) and 112.6 min (mitral valve). All patients were weaned from bypass. This initial patient series demonstrated that Port-Access surgery was feasible in selected patients.

Recognition of the significant advantages of minimizing surgical trauma has resulted in a substantial increase in the number of minimally invasive (MI) cardiac surgical procedures being performed. Synchronously, technological advances in optics, instrumentation and perfusion technology have facilitated routine totally endoscopic robotic cardiac surgery using the da Vinci((R)) telemanipulation s...
متن کاملMinimally Invasive Mitral Valve Procedures: The Current State
Since its early days, cardiac surgery has typically involved large incisions with complete access to the heart and the great vessels. After the popularization of the minimally invasive techniques in general surgery, cardiac surgeons began to experiment with minimal access techniques in the early 1990s. Although the goals of minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) are fairly well established a...

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...
