Minimally invasive mitral valve surgery involves advanced techniques to repair the mitral valve through smaller incisions, avoiding a full sternotomy. Common approaches include partial sternotomy, right mini-thoracotomy, and robotic-assisted procedures. This method offers reduced postoperative pain, shorter recovery, and better cosmetic results. Cardiopulmonary bypass is typically used, with peripheral femoral cannulation being the most common method. Minimally invasive surgery is suitable for many patients, including those at high surgical risk, and has shown comparable safety and efficacy to traditional open-heart surgery. Clinicians participating in this course enhance their knowledge and skills in minimally invasive mitral valve surgery, including patient selection criteria, surgical techniques, and postoperative management. The course provides clinicians with insights into the latest advancements and best practices, improving their ability to coordinate care within a multidisciplinary team, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and satisfaction.
