Our team currently performs the worldās smallest incisions for mitral valve repair surgery using an endoscopic robotic approach with all percutaneous cannulation. Largest incision in the entire body is the 8mm working port (approx. the diameter of a pen) roboticheartsurgeon.com

While regulating new variations in procedures sounds good, a āNational Cardiothoracic Innovation Boardā gives too much power to a privileged oligarchy in our specialty and is likely to dramatically reduce real advances in cardiac surgical care. š

This is a great technique for our surgery that I learned from Dr. Vince Gaudiani. Separate cannulas and circuit to the body and the innominate for differential head cooling. Head 20-24C, body 28-30C.
