Congratulations, very nice video only a few small questions         1-for cardioplegia: you first use an injection into the root of the aorta when there is an aortic insufficiency. Why don't you use retrograde cardioplegia by the coronary sinus?       2-what is the time of the aortic cross clamping?     3-  How did you de-air the LV/aortic thank you for your collaboration and your understanding
Congratulations for nice demonstration of endoscopic AVR. Will you please elaborate your utility incision and other port placement with sites (space and location) for different endoscopic cardiac surgeries! Is there any undercut of space beyond skin incision? Thanks.
