It also provides for a faster recovery and a better cosmetic outcome because surgical scars are less noticeable.</p> <p><strong>Also see</strong>: <a href="https://www.abheartcare.com/blog/what-is-minimally-invasive-cardiac-heart-surgery-in-chandigarh/">Minimally Invasive cardiac surgeon in Chandigarh</a></p> <p><strong>Who are suitable candidate for MICS?</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.abheartcare.com/blog/minimally-invasive-cardiac-surgery/">Minimally invasive cardiac surgery</a> may or may not be the best therapy option for every patient. Patients with major medical conditions, such as lung disease or peripheral vascular disease, aberrant rib cage anatomy (severe kyphosis or pectus chest), or those who need additional cardiac procedures, should not undergo MICS. MICS is also seldom used in complicated cases requiring numerous procedures, such as a combined valve and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) procedure. Patients with an active lifestyle, such as those who participate in sports, or those who are likely to experience delayed chest bone healing if bone splitting is performed, will benefit more from MICS.</p> <p><strong>Also see:</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.abheartcare.com/blog/pediatric-heart-surgeon-in-chandigarh/">Pediatric Heart Surgeon in Chandigarh</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.abheartcare.com/valve-replacement/">Valve Replacement Surgery</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.abheartcare.com/">Cardiologist in Chandigarh</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.abheartcare.com/blog/bypass-heart-surgeon-in-chandigarh/">Bypass Heart surgeon in Chandigarh</a></li> </ul>
