[Aortic valve prosthesis implantation from a mini approach].
The authors share their experiences with performing the first in Russia operation of making the aorta valve prosthetics from a mini-access--transverse sternotomy. It is concluded that operations through such accesses are safe for the patient and relatively easy for the surgeon. Its main advantage consists in quick surgical rehabilitation of the patient and good cosmetic effect.
