Since the development of minimally invasive coronary surgery, nomenclature has rapidly grown to distinguish each unique method. The goal of this review was to provide a comprehensive overview of the different terms used for minimally invasive coronary bypass grafting through the years.
A literature search was performed in August 2024 using the PubMed electronic database. To extract the best search results: "minimally invasive" and "coronary artery bypass grafting" were used as either keywords or MeSH terms. The term robotic was specifically included for a second search. Eligible articles for this review were articles using an abbreviation to describe minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting.
A total of 2118 publications on non-robotic minimally invasive coronary procedures and 392 on robotic-assisted techniques were reviewed, describing 40 unique terms for the procedure. Procedures were grouped based on left internal mammary artery harvest and anastomosis methods: mini-thoracotomy for both harvesting and coronary anastomosis (n = 586), endoscopic harvest with mini-thoracotomy (n = 37), robotic harvest with mini-thoracotomy (n = 144) and closed-chest revascularization (n = 140). Minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting was the most studied technique (486 publications, non-robotic and robotic), followed by closed-chest totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass (n = 124).
In conclusion, a wide variety of terms are used within the field of minimally invasive coronary surgery. A total of 40 different terms have been published, each describing certain specifics of the procedure. For anyone involved in the field of minimally invasive surgery, it is important to understand the differences and similarities of these procedures.
自微创冠状动脉手术发展以来，用于区分每种独特方法的术语迅速增多。本综述的目的是全面概述多年来用于微创冠状动脉搭桥术的不同术语。
2024年8月使用PubMed电子数据库进行文献检索。为了获得最佳检索结果，“微创”和“冠状动脉搭桥术”用作关键词或医学主题词。第二次检索专门纳入了“机器人”一词。本综述的合格文章是使用缩写描述微创冠状动脉搭桥术的文章。
共审查了2118篇关于非机器人微创冠状动脉手术的出版物和392篇关于机器人辅助技术的出版物，描述了该手术的40个独特术语。手术根据左乳内动脉采集和吻合方法进行分组：采集和冠状动脉吻合均采用迷你开胸术（n = 586）、内镜采集联合迷你开胸术（n = 37）、机器人采集联合迷你开胸术（n = 144）和闭式胸廓内血管重建术（n = 140）。微创直接冠状动脉搭桥术是研究最多的技术（486篇出版物，包括非机器人和机器人手术），其次是闭式胸廓内全内镜冠状动脉搭桥术（n = 124）。
总之，微创冠状动脉手术领域使用了各种各样的术语。总共已发表了40个不同的术语，每个术语都描述了该手术的某些具体情况。对于任何参与微创手术领域的人来说，了解这些手术的异同都很重要。
