A Step-by-Step Guide to Transaxillary Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement, Mitral Valve Repair, and Rhythm Surgery

  • August 11, 2026

By: Jelle Fleerakkers

Keywords:

  • Mitral Valve

The authors present a 75-year-old woman with dyspnea on exertion. She was diagnosed with an aortic valve stenosis and moderate-to-severe mitral valve regurgitation due to a localized A2 prolapse.

This case demonstrates a step-by-step transaxillary, direct-vision aortic valve replacement, mitral valve repair, concomitant ablation, and left atrial appendage clip.

This video submission is from the 2026 CTSNet Instructional Video Competition. Stay tuned to CTSNet.org and the CTSNet YouTube channel in the coming weeks to watch all entries from the competition, including the winning videos.
