Title: Robotic mitral valve replacement. Author: Senay S, Gullu AU, Kocyigit M, Degirmencioglu A, Karabulut H, Alhan C. Journal: Multimed Man Cardiothorac Surg; 2014; 2014():. PubMed ID: 25227980. Abstract: Robotic surgical techniques allow surgeons to perform mitral valve surgery. This procedure has gained acceptance, particularly for mitral valve repair in degenerative mitral disease. However, mitral repair may not always be possible, especially in severely calcified mitral valve of rheumatic origin. This study demonstrates the basic concepts and technique of robotic mitral valve replacement for valve pathologies that are not suitable for repair.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
