摘要: OBJECTIVE To characterize the early outcomes of robotic mitral valve (MV) repair using standard open techniques. PATIENTS AND METHODS We prospectively studied 100 patients with severe regurgitation due to leaflet prolapse who underwent robot-assisted MV conventional open-repair techniques between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2009, at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN. RESULTS The mean age was 53.9 years; 77 (77%) were male. Fifty-nine (59%) had posterior prolapse, 38 (38%) bileaflet disease, 3 (3%) isolated anterior prolapse. Median cross-clamp bypass times decreased significantly during course study ( p CONCLUSION Robot-assisted proven, is reproducible safe hastens recovery for all categories One month after surgery, significant regression in left ventricular size volume evident.
