Minimally Invasive
December 12, 2022
This video presents technical aspects of an outside the thoracic cage (OTC) robotic right upper lobectomy (RUL) through a subcostal approach, avoiding intercostal instrumentation and therefore the potential damage to the intercostal bundle.

CTSNet was pleased to host a webinar on the topic of "Advances in Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Repair & Replacement Surgery" in collaboration with Edwards Lifesciences. The webinar was broadcasted to a live audience on December 5, 2022. The faculty featured renowned leaders in the North American cardiac surgery community: Pavan Atluri (Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania), Arnar Geirsson (Yale School of Medicine), and Eric S. Weiss (Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center).

This video presents a case illustrating the safety and advantage of using the robotic platform for challenging lesions that could not be performed by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
Minimally Invasive Versus Full Sternotomy for Isolated Aortic Valve Replacement in Low-Risk Patients
December 1, 2022
This comparison of minimally invasive versus full sternotomy surgical aortic valve replacement aimed to analyze outcomes of the two procedures for isolated surgery in patients enrolled in a low-risk trial. For this group of patients, it was found that the two approaches were associated with similar in-hospital and one-year outcomes.

This video shows a case of a large post-intubation tracheal laceration repair performed by robotic assisted thoracoscopic surgery with a veno-venous ECMO support. It demonstrates the enormous potential of these two technological tools when applied together for selected complex cases of tracheal diseases.
