MICS also requires safe management of hemodynamics and preservation of cardiac function, which we have termed <i>myocardial management</i>. Finally, comprehensive perioperative care through an ERAS program should be provided to allow patients to achieve optimal recovery. Therefore, we propose that MICS requires 3 elements: (1) a less invasive surgical incision (non-full sternotomy), (2) optimized myocardial management, and (3) ERAS.
