MV Repair
• MIMVS
– does not refer to a single approach
– a collection of new techniques and operation-
specific technologies
• enhanced visualization and instrumentation
• modified perfusion methods
• all directed toward minimizing surgical trauma by
reducing the incision size

Holzhey
• 1,027 elderly patients (>70 years
• August 1999 and July 2009
• analyzed for outcome differences due to surgical approach using propensity score matching
• etiology – degenerative (83%)
– endocarditis (6%)
– rheumatic (10%)
– acute ischemic (<1%)
• Isolated stenosis was rare (3%)
• mitral valve regurgitation (72%)
• combined mitral valve disease (25%)
• longer duration of surgery (186 ± 61 vs
169 ± 59 minutes, p = 0.01)
• cardiopulmonary bypass time (142 ± 54 vs
102 ± 45 minutes, p = 0.0001)
• cross-clamp time (74 ± 44 vs 64 ± 28
minutes, p = 0.015)
• no differences between the matched
groups
– 30-day mortality (7.7% vs 6.3%, p = 0.82)
– combined major adverse cardiac
– cerebrovascular events (11.2% vs 12.6%, p =
0.86)
– other postoperative outcome
• postoperative arrhythmias and pacemaker
implants was higher in the sternotomy
group (65.7% vs 50.3% p = 0.023 and
18.9% vs 10.5%, p = 0.059)
• Long-term survival was 66% ± 5.6% vs 56
± 5.5% at 5 years and 35% ± 12% vs 40%
± 7.9% at 8 years, and did not show
significant differences
Holzey
Modi, Hassan, Chitwood
• 2008
• Meta-analysis
• 10 year investigational data
Mortality
• No difference
• Mihaljevic
– Largest study 474 MIMVS vs 337 MS
– (0.2-0.3%)
– MIMVS lower risk group
• Grossi
– Matched group
– Hospital mortality (3.7 vs 3.4%)
Neurologic events
• Mohr
– 18% incidence of postoperative confusion
– No CO2
• 10 studies
– no difference in stroke
• 2 studies
– Reduced stroke rate
• 6 studies
– No difference in neurologic events
Bleeding, transfusion, re-exploration
• Chitwood – No difference in blood loss or blood product
transfusion
– MIMVS fewer re-explorations for bleeding
• Glower – No difference in chest tube drainage or transfusion
requirements despite longer CPB time in MIMVS
• Cohn – MIMVS transfused 1.8 units less
• 5 studies – MIMVS showed significant reduction in reoperation
for bleeding
Atrial Fibrillation
• 5/6 studies
– No difference
• Asher
– 100 MICS patients
– 10% incidence of new onset AF with port
access lower than sternotomy
Septic complications
• Grossi
– MIMVS 0.9% vs. sternotomy 5.7%
– Elderly 1.8 vs 7.7
Pain and speed of recovery
• MIMVS (4/4 studies) – Reduction in pain and faster return to normal
activity • Most consistent finding
• Walther – Equivalent pain for 1st 2 days with significant
reduction afterwards with difference widening with time
• Glower – Postop pain resolved more quickly with MIMVS
– Patient returned to normal activity 5 weeks earlier
Pain and speed of recovery
• Cohn
– Less pain in hospital
– Less analgesic usage
– Greater patient satisfaction
– Return to normal activity 4.8 weeks ahead
• Felger and Vleissis
– In Re-do’s, their 2nd procedure (MI) all felt that
their recovery was more rapid and less painful
than their original sternotomy
Hospital stay and costs
• Trend for shorter stay in MIMVS but not
statistically significant
• Chitwood -34%
• Cohn -20%
• Cosgrove -7%
Discharge disposition
• Mihaljevic and Cohn
– fewer requirements for post-hospital
rehabilitation
– significant advantage in terms of healthcare
savings
• 91% being discharged home compared to 67%
with a conventional approach
Intermediate and long term results
• Grossi
– Equivalent 1 year freedom from operation
– Mihaljevic et al.
• significantly better actuarial survival at 5 years for
MI patients (95% vs 86%)
• explained by a lower risk profile
Crude adjusted mortality rate for
entire cohort
• MVRepair 1.1% (STS 1.5%)
• MVReplacement 4.9% (STS 5.5%)
Long Term Survival
• 100% at mean of 2.3 years to 83% at 6.8
years • vs
• Mayo Clinic 5 year survival 86.4%
• Cleveland Clinic 5 year survival 82%
Freedom from Re-operation
• 99.9% at 3.2 years to 91 % at 4 years
• Longest followup was 6.3 years with
96.2% freedom
• vs Mayo clinic data risk of reoperation
– 0.5% per year for isolated posterior leaflet
prolapse
– 1.64% per year for isolated anterior leaflet
prolapse
Special Situations
• Reoperative surgery
– Avoid sternal re-entry
– Limited dissection of adhesions
– Avoid risk of injury to cardiac structures or
patent grafts
– Limit post-op bleeding
– Less blood loss
– Less transfusions
– Faster recovery
Re-operative surgery case
control(Sharony et al)
• Equal mortality at 5%
• Fewer wound complications
• Less blood product
• Decreased hospital stay
• slightly more favorable mid-term outcomes
Bolotin et al.
• 71 reoperative mitral valve operations
– 38 minithoracotomy
– no difference
• Mortality
• CPB
– significantly reduced
• intubation times
• blood transfusion
• hospital stay
MIMVS risks
• vascular risks with femoral cannulation
• Groin seromas can be problematic but are kept to a
minimum by
– dissection only of the anterior surface of the vessels
– clipping lymphatics
• phrenic nerve palsy
– When the pericardium is opened too posteriorly
– place the pericardiotomy at least 3 cm anterior to it.
– Excess tension by pericardial retraction
Conclusions:
• Less invasive procedures are demanded
but at the same time proven safety,
efficacy and durability are expected
• No level one evidence to justify switching
to minimally invasive mitral valve surgery
• All evidence demonstrates that MIMVS is
associated with equal
– mortality
– neurological events
• despite longer cardiopulmonary bypass
and aortic cross-clamp times
• However, MIMVS compared to
conventional sternotomy-based surgery,
there is less morbidity in terms of
– reduced need for reoperation for bleeding
– trend towards shorter hospital stay
– less pain
– faster return to preoperative function levels
• translates into improved utilization of
limited healthcare resources
• long-term outcomes are equivalent to
those of conventional surgery
• Data for MIMVS after previous cardiac surgery is limited
but consistently demonstrates reduced
– blood loss
– fewer transfusions
– faster recovery compared to re-operative sternotomy
• patients who undergo a MIMVS as their second
procedure feel their recovery is more rapid and less
painful than their original sternotomy
Bottomline
• Most patients do not want a sternotomy
• traditional cardiac operations still enjoy
proven long-term success and ever-
decreasing M&M
