MICS-ASD - Dr. Kishor Deore

MICS-ASD refers to a minimally invasive cardiac surgery technique used to repair an Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) through small incisions, often between the ribs, rather than through a traditional open-heart approach. An ASD is a congenital heart defect where there is an abnormal opening between the two upper chambers of the heart, the atria.

Advantages of MICS-ASD:

• Smaller incisions result in less pain and scarring.
• Shorter hospital stay and faster recovery.
• Reduced risk of infection and complications.
• Suitable for patients with certain types of ASDs.
• Minimized trauma to surrounding tissues.
