Abstract
Over the past two decades, minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) has gained a significant place due to the emergence of innovative tools and improvements in surgical techniques, offering comparable efficacy and safety to traditional surgical methods. This review provides an overview of the history of MICS, its current state, and its prospects and highlights its advantages and limitations. Additionally, we highlight the growing trends and potential pathways for the expansion of MICS, underscoring the crucial role of technological advancements in shaping the future of this field. Recognizing the challenges, we strive to pave the way for further breakthroughs in minimally invasive cardiac procedures.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that the endoaortic balloon occlusion (EABO) can provide satisfactory aortic cross-clamping with comparable surgical outcomes to thoracic aortic clamping in the setting of minimally invasive and robotic cardiac surgery. We described our approach to EABO use in totally endoscopic and percutaneous robotic mitral valve surgery. Preoperative computed tomography angiography is required to evaluate the quality and size of the ascending aorta, identify access sites for peripheral cannulation and endoaortic balloon insertion, and screen for other vascular anomalies. Continuous bilateral upper extremity arterial pressure and cranial near-infrared spectroscopy monitoring are essential to detect obstruction of the innominate artery due to distal balloon migration. Transesophageal echocardiography is needed for continuous monitoring of balloon positioning and antegrade cardioplegia delivery. Direct fluorescent visualization of the endoaortic balloon on the robotic camera allows for verification of balloon and efficient repositioning if needed. The surgeon should assess hemodynamic and imaging information simultaneously during the balloon inflation and delivery of antegrade cardioplegia. Aortic root pressure, systemic blood pressure, and balloon catheter tension affect the position of the inflated endoaortic balloon in the ascending aorta. The surgeon should eliminate all slack in the balloon catheter and lock it into position to prevent proximal balloon migration after the completion of antegrade cardioplegia. Using scrupulous preoperative imaging assessment and continuous intraoperative monitoring, the EABO can achieve adequate cardiac arrest in totally endoscopic robotic cardiac surgery, even in patients with previous sternotomy without compromise of surgical outcomes.

Decision Making during the Learning Curve of Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Surgery: A Focused Review for the Starting Minimally Invasive Surgeon. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11205993. [PMID: 36294310 PMCID: PMC9604391 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11205993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Accepted: 10/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Minimally invasive mitral valve surgery is evolving rapidly since the early 1990’s and is now increasingly adopted as the standard approach for mitral valve surgery. It has a long and challenging learning curve and there are many considerations regarding technique, planning and patient selection when starting a minimally invasive program. In the current review, we provide an overview of all considerations and the decision-making process during the learning curve.
