Successful surgery, particularly on the heart valves, is dependent on excellent and consistent exposure of the operative field. In this report, we describe 2 types of new atrial retractors designed for robotic and minimally invasive mitral valve surgery. These simple and easy-to-handle atrial retractors provide exceptional and consistent exposure of the left atrium in robotic and minimally invasive mitral valve surgery and prevent traumatic injury.
成功的手术，尤其是心脏瓣膜手术，取决于手术视野的良好且持续暴露。在本报告中，我们描述了两种为机器人辅助和微创二尖瓣手术设计的新型心房牵开器。这些简单且易于操作的心房牵开器在机器人辅助和微创二尖瓣手术中能提供出色且持续的左心房暴露，并防止创伤性损伤。
