Abstract:
Objective To investigate the short-term efficacy and safety through analyzing the results of 11 cases of video assisted minimally invasive cardiac surgery. Methods Eleven patients who had underwent video assisted minimally invasive cardiac surgery in the second hospital of Anhui medical university from November 2017 to August 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. One patient underwent simple atrial septal defect repair, 6 patients underwent atrial septal defect repair+tricuspid valve repair, 3 patients underwent mitral valve replacement, and 1 patient underwent mitral valve repair + tricuspid valve repair. Results All patients underwent video cardiac surgery without death, with no major bleeding (need secondary thoracotomy to stop bleeding) and no neurological complications. One patient of incision fat liquefaction healed after dressing change. One patient developed lower limb artery stenosis, which was treated conservatively and discharged after hospitalization. Conclusions Video assisted minimally invasive cardiac surgery can be safely applied to simple congenital heart disease and valve surgery as long as patients are strictly screened. Due to the advantages of small trauma, less bleeding, and quick recovery, it is worth promoting.
