Background. Video-assisted endoscopy has been applied frequently in the management of a variety of surgical diseases. However, it has rarely been applied in mitral valve surgery.

Methods. We report 2 patients who received emergency operations for thrombosis of a mitral prosthesis (patient 1, a 68-year-old man) and acute mitral regurgitation due to rupture of anterior chordae (patient 2, a 75-year-old woman). They both had severe congestive heart failure. Cardiogenic shock was noted in patient 2. The mitral valve was approached through a right anterior minithoracotomy with the aid of an endoscope by means of projected images on the video monitor under femorofemoral cardiopulmonary bypass. The aorta was not cross-clamped, and the myocardium was protected by continuous coronary perfusion with hypothermic fibrillatory arrest. The left atrium was entered posterior to the interatrial groove. Thrombectomy and mitral valve repair were performed successfully.

Results. The duration of extracorporeal circulation was 204 and 147 minutes, respectively. Both patients recovered from the operation rapidly with uneventful postoperative courses.

Conclusions. Our preliminary results suggest that video-assisted endoscopic cardiac surgery is technically feasible and could be performed in the milieu of open heart surgery.
