To evaluate the clinical results of aortic valve replacement performed with a miniaturized
closed circuit extracorporeal circulation (MECC) system and to compare it to standard …

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and the clinical outcomes of aortic valve
replacement (AVR) performed with minimally invasive extracorporeal circulation (miniECC) …

OBJECTIVES The impact of minimally invasive extracorporeal circulation (MiECC) systems
on the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing minimally invasive aortic valve replacement …

BACKGROUND: Minimal access aortic valve replacement (mAVR) has been demonstrated
to be beneficial over standard median sternotomy. Similarly, minimal extracorporeal …

BACKGROUND: We prospectively evaluated a newly introduced minimal extracorporeal
circulation system (Jostra MECC System; Jostra AG, Hirrlingen, Germany) for aortic valve …

Objective: We performed a case-control-study to compare perioperative and mid-term results
of minimally invasive with conventional aortic valve replacement. Methods: Between 8/96 …

Introduction: Even though results have been encouraging, an unequivocal conclusion on the
beneficial effect of minimally invasive extracorporeal circulation (MiECC) in patients …

Isolated aortic valve replacement (AVR) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using
minimized extracorporeal circulation (MECC) has been shown to have less deleterious …

Background Minimally invasive extracorporeal circulation (MECC) is predominantly used in
