If something is done minimally it means that it did get done but with barely any effort exuded by the participant involved. It is usually not a good thing to do things minimally.
Similar-minimally acceptable.
No. (in pure water or minimally diluted water)
The treatment was only minimally successful.
Minimally invasive valve surgery has been an outgrowth of the success with minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting.
This sounds like an aortic dissection, and should be taken care of asap. If you mean that your aorta is torn minimally. It can be repaired, but if left alone will cause death in the soon to not too distant future, depending on the size of the tear.
Many new procedures are minimally invasive and can leave small scars. Either stitches or staples may be used. Minimally invasive surgery is much easier for the patient to recover from.

The phrase "thoracic aorta is minimally tortuous but normal in caliber" indicates that the thoracic aorta, which is the part of the aorta running through the chest, has a slight curvature or bending (minimally tortuous) but maintains a size that is within the normal range (normal in caliber). This suggests that, despite the mild tortuosity, there are no significant abnormalities or blockages in the aorta's diameter. Overall, it implies that the structure of the thoracic aorta is generally healthy.
When something is shooed, it could mean that it is something annoying being ushered away. Or, shooed can mean that something is given shoes.
