Sumario:The first case of late thoracic wall bleeding after minimally invasive mitral valve repair treated by endovascular therapy is reported. A 55-year-old woman underwent mitral valve repair and tricuspid annuloplasty through a mini-thoracotomy approach. Her postoperative course was uneventful until she had anemia one week after the surgery. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed right hemothorax due to bleeding from a branch of the right lateral thoracic artery. Endovascular coil embolization and gelatin sponge injection were performed. The patient was discharged without any complications on postoperative day 20.
