Robotic totally endoscopic aortic valve replacement with a sutured bioprosthesis

摘要

Surgical robots have been utilized to facilitate a truly minimally invasive approach in cardiac surgery. Robotic aortic valve replacement allows for a totally endoscopic approach with better visualization in a wider range of patients with varying anatomies. It has the potential advantages of faster functional recovery and superior cosmetic outcomes compared to traditional sternotomy or thoracotomy approaches. In this case report, we show the details of robotic totally endoscopic aortic valve replacement.
