Abstract
Minimally invasive coronary surgery offers benefits to the patient. Besides the anterior wall, the lateral and inferior walls can be reached through a small thoracotomy with off-pump techniques. Thoracoscopic coronary identification can be very useful in these multivessel procedures. Positioning the heart without cardiopulmonary bypass can be challenging. We describe our technique for off-pump positioning and for grafting the right posterior descending coronary artery.
