Core Tip Minimally invasive triple valve surgery is rarely reported, particularly in developing countries with limited resources. This retrospective study presents the early experience with concomitant minimally invasive aortic and mitral valve replacement, combined with tricuspid valve repair, via a right mini-thoracotomy. Despite prolonged operative times, the procedure demonstrated excellent early outcomes, no mortality, and rapid postoperative recovery. These findings support the feasibility of minimally invasive multi-valve surgery in carefully selected patients, even in resource-constrained environments.
