Key result
Minimally invasive surgical aortic valve replacement has garnered resurgent clinical interest, prompting a comprehensive review of its history and existing evidence.
This review summarizes the history and existing evidence regarding minimal access surgical aortic valve replacement.
Resurgent interest in minimally invasive SAVR may prompt reevaluation of options; this review extends prior syntheses but leaves open definitive comparisons.
With the advent of transcatheter aortic valve replacement and the emergence of rapid deployment aortic valves, there is a resurgent interest in minimizing the trauma of surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR). The present review summarizes the history of minimal access AVR and attempts to collate the existing evidence regarding minimal access AVR.
