Robotically Assisted Minimally Invasive Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery in a Patient With Permanent Tracheostomy - 05/10/17
, Campbell D. Flynn, MBBS a, b, Michael K. Wilson, FRACS a, bRésumé |
Background |
Patients with a permanent tracheostomy requiring coronary surgery represent a unique challenge, being at increased risk of sternal wound complications, mediastinitis and stoma necrosis. Several techniques have been described including manubrium sparing sternotomy, thoracoscopic internal mammary harvest and hybrid revascularisation.
Methods |
We report a case of robotic assisted (daVinci® Xi™ Surgical System) total arterial off-pump revascularisation in a patient with previous laryngectomy and permanent tracheostomy. The main advantage of this approach was to minimise the risk of postoperative sternal complication and mediastinatis, whilst still providing the prognostic benefit of total arterial grafting and the neurological advantage of the aorta no-touch technique.
