There are several types of annuloplasty devices for mitral repair. We present a totally-thoracoscopic robotic mitral repair using a new semi-rigid ring with a nitinol core that makes it malleable so that it can be inserted through a trocar. This technique combines the advantages of semi-rigid rings and a totally-thoracoscopic approach, which may further expand this approach to other aetiologies.
有几种二尖瓣修复用瓣环成形术装置。我们介绍一种使用新型半刚性环和带有镍钛诺芯的二尖瓣修复的全胸腔镜机器人技术,该环具有柔韧性,可通过套管针插入。这种技术结合了半刚性环和全胸腔镜方法的优点,这可能会进一步将这种方法扩展到其他病因。
