Key result
Robotic ASD closure with transcatheter device removal offers a feasible minimally invasive option for failed closures.
Robot-assisted surgery is a feasible minimally invasive approach for the management of failed transcatheter atrial septal defect closures.
Central picture: Exposure of transcatheter device prior to removal and closure of the atrial septal defect.Central Message: Robot assisted atrial septal defect closure and transcatheter device removal is a feasible, minimally invasive approach.
