title: Mitral valve repair and aortic valve replacement with sutureless prosthesis implantation through a right minithoracotomy.
abstract: Little experience exists in minimally invasive treatment of double-valve disease. In this report, we present a minimally invasive approach for mitral and aortic valve disease through a minithoracotomy in the 3rd intercostal space with a sutureless aortic prosthesis implantation.
