Abstract
Robotically assisted mitral valve reconstruction has become a cornerstone in the management of degenerative mitral valve regurgitation. High-volume centers report exceptional outcomes with minimal morbidity and mortality in select patient populations. As compared to conventional sternotomy, robotically assisted surgery has yielded comparable efficacy and safety, with potential benefits of improved cosmesis and a faster recovery period. Despite the potential benefits of a robotic approach, there has been a reluctance in widespread adoption due to concerns over increased operative and crossclamp times as compared to conventional sternotomy approaches. In light of this specific concern, we have identified opportunities to improve the efficiency of robotic mitral valve repair by application of 5 innovations and surgical strategies.
