CARDIOPULMONARY BYPASS USING A SINGLE VENOUS FEMORAL CANNULA IN MINIMALY INVASIVE COMBINED MITRAL AND TRICUSPID VALVE SURGERY USING A RIGHT THORACOTOMY.

We present our experience in performing cardiopulmonary bypass with a single venous femoral cannula and vacuum assisted venous drainage in patients scheduled for minimally invasive combined mitral and tricuspid valve surgery in whom superior vena cava cannulation proves to be impossible or with great risk of complications.
