“…In this sense, robotic assistance has gradually gaining ground in clinical practice, aiding in dissection of the internal thoracic artery and performance of coronary anastomosis [51,52]. CABG robotic surgeries with chest fully enclosed are a reality in some centers in the United States and Europe, and the anastomoses performed with the use of mechanical devices, without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass.…”

“…The first series of cases in which TECABG was performed was presented in 1999 by LOULMET et al [21], who presented results of the revascularization surgery of the anterior descending artery in four patients utilizing the Intuitive Surgical System. In spite of previous training in animals and corpses and previously performing more simple procedures, technical difficulties appeared during the procedures, with surgeries being completed in the totally endoscopic manner in two of the cases and in the others a mini-thoracotomy was necessary.…”
