Abstract
Aims: Minimally invasive mitral valve surgery (MIS) has evolved to a routine procedure over the last years and is the approach of first choice in some specialized centers. Besides the obvious cosmetic benefit, the effects on postoperative outcome are still topic of discussion. Aim of this study was to compare the results after conventional sternotomy (CS) and MI mitral valve surgery using a propensity matched analysis.
