Brief summary
There are many different types of mini-invasive approaches to aortic surgery. Ministernotomy and anterior right minithoracotomy are the two main techniques applied for minimally invasive aortic valve replacement, but if one of them is superior in terms of patient outcomes it is not still clear. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare the immediate and long-term outcomes of these two techniques.
