Minimally invasive Ozaki technique

Short-term outcomes of Ozaki procedure: a multicenter study

“…3). По данным Fallon JM, et al [8] после протезирования АК различными протезами частота умеренного и выраженного несоответствия "протез-пациент" встречается в 54% и 11% случаях, соответственно. Этими же авторами [7] было показано, что любое несоответствие "протезпациент" значительно снижает отдаленную выживаемость и увеличивает частоту повторных госпитализаций как по поводу сердечной недостаточности, так и по поводу повторных операций.…”

Aortic Valve Neocuspidization Using Autologous Pericardium (Ozaki Procedure): an Alternative to Aortic Valve Replacement in Adult Cardiac Surgery?

“…In order to reduce the surgical trauma, efforts have been made to perform the procedure minimally invasive. To harvest the pericardium, a thoracoscopic approach was used in certain studies [21,22]. Although the authors conclude that the minimally invasive approach using thoracoscopy to harvest the pericardium and an upper ministernotomy or Jministernotomy for reconstruction might be an alternative to conventional sternotomy, the experience with this strategy is limited to date [21,22].…”

Furthermore, some centers use bovine or tissue-engineered pericardium instead of autologous pericardium for the construction of the valve [16,23].…”
