    We successfully introduced minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) to japan by performing thoracoscopic clipping of a patent ductus arteriosus in July 1992. MICS via a small right parasternal incision (Cosgrove procedure) was applied for one patients with severe rheumatic mitral stenosis, one with severe aortic regurgitation, and one with atrial septal defect (ASD). Mitral valve replacement (MVR), aortic valve replacement (AVR), and direct closure of the ASD were performed successfully by MICS for the the first time in Japan. All three patients required no blood transfusion and had no complications postoperatively, being discharged from hospital at 15, 13, and 9 days after their operations. MICS was satisfactory for mitral valve and ASD operations, but AVR by this approach took much longer than by standard midline sternotomy due to the poor surgical field obtained via the small right parasternal incision. A minimally invasive approach for surgery on the aortic valve and ascending aorta may require transection of the sternum or some other method. MICS has several advantages, including less trauma and pain, faster patient recovery, shorter ICU and hospital stays, a lower cost, and a better cosmetic outcome. Therefore, it is better for the patient when it is feasible. MICS should develop and be applied to more patients with cardiovascular disease in the future. Some of the standard cardiovascular operations may soon be replaced by MICS.
