Abstract
A method of repeat sternotomy using a microsagittal oscillating saw is described. We have found this method to be safer and simpler than previously described techniques. We have used this technique in more than 50 repeat sternotomies without a single complication related to the mediastinal reentry procedure.Mesh:
