Robotically assisted hybrid coronary revascularization-Masterly technique but is it for the masses?
Pradeep NarayanGianni Davide AngeliniPublished in: Journal of cardiac surgery (2022)
Hybrid coronary revascularization consists of left internal thoracic artery (LITA) graft to the left anterior descending (LAD) artery and transcatheter revascularization of the non-LAD stenosis in specific settings to achieve complete coronary revascularization. Technique to perform the LITA to LAD graft has ranged from median sternotomy with cardiopulmonary bypass to robotically assisted totally endoscopic coronary bypass surgery using beating heart revascularization.
