The so-called mini-bypass heart surgery is done through a cut in the chest which is three times smaller than usual. Within a day of the operation, patients can begin their recovery on paracetamol instead of the morphine painkillers they would usually need.
The cut is made just 8cm (3ins) long in the lower part of chestbone. With a much smaller cut in the sternum, the heart surgeon carefully manipulates the heart until the diseased artery is directly below the hole. The heart surgeon re-routes the blood supply to the heart muscle through the mammary artery, which lies close by, and a transplanted section of artery from the lower arm.
The technique is currently done in just very few surgical centres around the world. But its advantages are so great that it is expected to be rapidly adopted by other hospitals.
