Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery

Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS) refers to heart procedures performed through small incisions instead of a large chest opening. This method uses advanced techniques and tools, including cameras and specialized instruments, to operate more precisely. Benefits of MICS often include less pain, reduced recovery time, and a lower risk of complications compared to traditional surgery. It is typically used for conditions like valve repair or bypass surgery, allowing patients to return to their normal activities faster while maintaining the same effectiveness as traditional open-heart surgery.
