Robotic-assisted coronary artery bypass grafting: current knowledge and future perspectives.

Robotic-assisted coronary artery bypass grafting: current knowledge and future perspectives. Minerva Cardioangiol. 2020 Oct;68(5):497-510 Authors: Amabile A, Torregrossa G, Balkhy HH Abstract Minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCAB) and totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass grafting (TECAB) are the two existing strategies for robotic-assisted, surgical myocardial revascularization. In this review, we summarize the wide evidence available in the literature regarding the benefits of these two procedures, and detail the technical skills required to master robotic coronary surgery techniques.
