Abstract
|
|
|
|
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery using AESOP (Automated Endoscope System for Optimal Positioning) offers certain advantages such as better a cosmetic outcome, a shortened post operative recovery time and a shorten hospital stay, and these advantages are not achieved by conventional cardiac surgery. We report here on our first robot-assisted (AESOP) left minithoracotomy surgery in a 26 year-old female with a subarteral ventricular septal defect, and this might have been treated by median sternotomy before the development of AESOP.
