This report describes a hybrid intervention addressing left circumflex artery occlusion during minimally invasive mitral valve repair. By using a radiopaque Cor-Knot device (LSI Solutions), targeted removal of occluding sutures was achieved, circumventing sternotomy and coronary artery bypass. Real-time coronary angiography provided assessment of procedural success during surgical revision in a hybrid operating room.
