During the past 5 years, there has been considerable progress in the development of less invasive techniques for heart valve surgery. Both aortic and mitral valve surgery can now be performed through small chest wall incisions. Recent evidence confirms patient benefit with minimally invasive heart valve surgery. Although several approaches can be used, a partial upper sternotomy offers several advantages for minimally invasive heart valve surgery.
在过去5年中,心脏瓣膜手术的微创技术发展取得了显著进展。现在主动脉瓣和二尖瓣手术都可以通过小的胸壁切口进行。最近的证据证实了微创心脏瓣膜手术对患者有益。虽然可以采用几种方法,但部分上胸骨切开术在微创心脏瓣膜手术中具有几个优点。
