[Minimally invasive heart surgery].
Minimally invasive heart surgery encompasses a variety of techniques, each with its own objective (minimal incisions, absence of cardiopulmonary bypass and cost reduction). Postoperative care after such procedures are simpler, with early extubation and shortened hospital stays. A period of close observation in a postoperative intensive care recovery ward is still required.
