What is minimally Invasive Heart surgery and It's Benefits?

 Minimally invasive heart surgery involves making small incisions in the right side of your chest to reach the heart between the ribs, rather than cutting through the breastbone, as is done in open-heart surgery.

Minimally invasive heart surgery can be performed to treat a variety of heart conditions. Compared with open-heart surgery, this type of surgery might mean less pain and a quicker recovery for many people.

Minimally invasive heart surgery isn't an option for everyone. But for those who can have the surgery, the potential benefits when compared with open-heart surgery can include:

• Less blood loss
• Lower risk of infection
