Is totally endoscopic coronary bypass using the da Vinci robotic system feasible and safe for myocardial revascularization?
Totally endoscopic coronary bypass using robotic technology is a feasible and safe approach for patients with single-vessel disease, yielding excellent short-term patency.
Mishra et al. (2006) conducted an observational in Coronary artery disease (n=13). Totally endoscopic coronary bypass surgery using the da Vinci system was evaluated on Graft patency at 3 months. Totally endoscopic coronary bypass surgery using the da Vinci system in 13 patients resulted in no hospital mortality and 92.3% graft patency at 3 months.
