Through heart bypass surgery, a new pathway for blood and oxygen to travel to your heart is created.
Without stopping the heart, a minimally invasive coronary (heart) artery bypass can be performed. This technique does not need that you be placed on a heart-lung machine.
In contrast to open-heart surgery, which includes cutting through the breastbone, minimally invasive heart surgery entails making small incisions in the right side of your chest to access the heart between the ribs.
MIDCAB has several benefits over conventional CABG surgery, including:
- reduced chance of infection
- fewer scars result from smaller incisions.
- MIDCAB has disadvantages over conventional CABG surgery, including:
- Patients who require bypass grafts on several vessels should not undergo MIDCAB surgery.
- The tiny incisions mean that your MIDCAB has several benefits over conventional CABG surgery, including: reduced chance of infection
- fewer scars result from smaller incisions.
MIDCAB has disadvantages over conventional CABG surgery, including:
- Patients who require bypass grafts on several vessels should not undergo MIDCAB surgery.
- Your surgeon can only fix the veins on one side of the heart because of the tiny incisions.
