Robotic mitral valve repair
Successful repair
Robotic mitral valve repair is feasible in patients with severe pectus excavatum, despite it being considered a relative contraindication.
Pectus excavatum is a relative contraindication to robotic cardiac surgery given the challenges of access and exposure. We present 3 cases of successful robotic mitral valve repair in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation and severe pectus excavatum.
