Abstract

Minimally invasive mitral valve surgery (MIMVS) presents suitable patients with a less invasive alternative to median sternotomy, with comparable mortality, repair success and durability. MIMVS and robotic assisted MIMVS encompasses various techniques, which require specific anesthetic management. This includes specific cannulation techniques and its monitoring as well as different techniques for one lung ventilation. The value of intra- and postoperative pain therapy will be discussed.

Finally, it is essential to be aware of procedure specific complications in order to limit their occurrence and to recognize and appropriately manage these when they occur.
