Minimally Invasive Aortic Root and Aorta surGery rEgistry

Multicentre Registry of Minimally Invasive Aorta and Aortic Root Surgeries in Patients With Aortic Aneurysms

Minimally invasive aortic valve (AV) surgery has become widely accepted alternative to standard sternotomy. Despite possible reduction in morbidity, this approach is not routinely performed for aortic surgery. Evidence exists, however, on safety of this approach together with promising results regarding its long-term durability. The MIRAGE Registry is aimed to collect and analyse the data from multiple aortic excellence centres and to analyse them in numerous clinical scenarios.

Inclusion Criteria:

• isolated, first time aortic root or aorta surgery

Exclusion Criteria:

• active aortic valve endocarditis, redo surgery, acute type A dissection, and concomitant cardiac procedures.
