Advancing Cardiac Care: The Future of Minimally Invasive Heart Surgery
Combining precision technology with patient-centered care to improve outcomes
Minimally Invasive Heart Surgery is an advanced surgical technique that allows doctors to perform heart procedures through small incisions in the chest, without the need to open the entire breastbone. This method reduces pain, minimizes scarring, shortens hospital stays, and speeds up recovery. Common procedures include valve repair or replacement, bypass surgery, and treatment of arrhythmias. With the expertise of specialists like Dr. Jai Bhagwan Dhull, patients receive safer, more precise care with better overall outcomes.
What are the Types of Minimally Invasive Heart Surgery
1. Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)
Also called “keyhole CABG” or MIDCAB.
Performed through small incisions, without fully opening the chest.
Used to bypass blocked coronary arteries.
2. Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Surgery Used to repair or replace the mitral valve through small incisions between the ribs. Avoids sternotomy (splitting the breastbone).
3. Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Surgery Involves repairing or replacing the aortic valve. Often done using right anterior thoracotomy approach.
4. Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) Catheter-based technique, not a traditional surgery. Ideal for high-risk or elderly patients with aortic stenosis.
5. Maze Procedure for Atrial Fibrillation Treats abnormal heart rhythms (AFib). Involves creating controlled scars in the heart to guide electrical signals properly. Can be done via small incisions or thoracoscopically.

What is minimally invasive heart surgery?
It’s a type of heart surgery done through small incisions (instead of opening the chest fully), using special instruments and cameras to perform procedures safely.
What types of heart problems can be treated with minimally invasive surgery?
Common conditions include valve repair/replacement, atrial septal defect closure, bypass surgery (in selected cases), and some congenital heart defects.
What are the benefits compared to traditional open-heart surgery?
Minimally invasive surgery offers:
Smaller incisions
Less pain
Reduced scarring
Shorter hospital stays
Faster recovery
Smaller incisions
Less pain
Reduced scarring
Shorter hospital stays
Faster recovery
Is minimally invasive heart surgery safe?
Yes. When performed by experienced surgeons, it is a safe and effective alternative to open-heart surgery with fewer complications and faster healing time.
Who is a good candidate for minimally invasive heart surgery?
Not all patients qualify. It depends on age, heart condition, previous surgeries, and overall health. A cardiothoracic surgeon evaluates each case individually.
