Minimally invasive aortic valve surgery is a relatively new field which cardiac surgeons are increasingly embracing, and patients and cardiologists are demanding this with more enthusiasm. This is a current subject of great interest with contemporary results already present and more are awaited. This book describes the process through the set-up of a minimally invasive aortic valve surgery program, pertinent investigations, patient selection, different approaches (including endoscopic and robotic), cardio-pulmonary bypass, re-operations and their application with rapid deployment and aortic vascular surgery. This book is intended for all training cardiac surgeons and cardiologists, consultant cardiac surgeons and cardiologists, anaesthetists, intensive care specialists and perfusionists. This is the first book authored exclusively on this subject. The three editors are leading authorities on this subject in the UK and are mentors for many surgical programs. Every chapter is authored by experts in this particular aspect of minimally invasive aortic valve surgery. These surgeons are mainly from the United States, Australia and Europe.

Hunaid Vohra's : journey in Cardiac Surgery went through working in hospitals in London (Harefield) and Southampton, UK. Having been conferred the status of a Fellow both by the British as well as the European Cardiac Surgical Boards, he was awarded the prestigious Ethicon Scholarship from the Society of Cardiothoracic Surgeons to sub-specialise in mitral and aortic valve repair with Professor Gebrine El Khoury at Saint-Luc University Hospital (Brussels) followed by minimally invasive mitral valve repair with Professor Hugo Vanermen at OLV clinic (Aalst, Belgium). On his return to UK, he completed another sub-speciality fellowship in minimally invasive aortic valve replacement and trans-catheter aortic valve insertion (TAVI) at the St Thomas' Hospital, London.His love of the practical aspects of surgery is matched by an enthusiasm for research. He has been awarded a BUPA Cardiac Surgical Research Fellowship where his thesis looked at the mechanisms of apoptosis and necrosis after a myocardial infarction. He maintains an active involvement in research through his Honorary Senior Lecturer position at the University of Bristol. He is faculty on various international training courses and currently holds the position of Associate Editor of the Cardiac Valve section of ICVTS/EJCTS journal.
