ABSTRACT

The presence of breast implants can interfere with the surgical exposure for the completion of a minimally invasive heart procedure. We present a series of 7 patients with valvular heart disease with previous breast implant. We perform periareolar approach on the majority of cases, preserving the capsule and removing the implant. It is safe and feasible to perform a minimally invasive approach through periareolar approach in patients with breast implants without presenting complications and preserving the cosmetics.
