Abstract: ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical results of totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery for mitral valve diseases.MethodsFrom May 2004 to October 2011,272 patients underwent totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery for mitral valve diseases through three ports.Summarize the indication and contraindication are used and for the operation date.Results There was 1 case in-hospital deaths.The time of operations was 2.1 ～ 3.9 (3.0 ± 1.2 ) h.Time of cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic cross-clamp was 76 ～ 158 (98 ± 22) minites and 38 ～ 78 (52 ± 13 ) minites.Time of mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit stay was 5.8 ～ 34.5 ( 11.2 ± 3.6 ) hours and 14 ～ 67 ( 28.2 ± 7.6 ) hours.The volume of drainage was 20 ～ 1200(370 ± 80) ml.The hospital days were 7 ～ 18 ( 10.2 ± 2.1 ) days.The postoperative complications occurred in 14 cases.ConclusionTotally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery for mitral valve diseases is technically feasible and safe with less drainage and shortened hospital stay.
