The RATS approach to cardiac denervation has similar 1-year follow-up outcomes in reducing recurrent VT as the VATS approach. However, patients undergoing RATS denervation experienced better perioperative outcomes. This shows promise for robotic CSD to be an effective and safe therapeutic option for patients with malignant arrhythmias.
