Overview
Objective :
The aim of the paper was to describe history, development and current state of robotically assisted cardiac surgery.
Background:
Robotic surgery is an entirely new technology that achieves unusual boom in the last few years. The reason is that all surgical specialties are looking for new ways how to make progress in minimally invasive approaches and so decrease the surgical stress.
Methods:
Review of articles describing history and development of robotic surgery, with special interest in cardiac surgery.
Results:
Number of centers using robots in their clinical practice rapidly increases. After slow start, cardiac surgery today belongs to the fastest growing area of robotic technology. It has been shown that nearly all cardiac surgical procedures could be performed using the robot. Currently most of the surgical specialties use the robot. Robotic technology is not able to cover the whole spectrum of the surgical procedures in any area of surgery. That is why it is currently efficient to build up multifunctional robotic operating theatres that can serve for more surgical specialties.
Conclusions:
Although robotic surgery is still in the very beginning, its great potential is evident by now. Only next years will show efficacy, safety, cost effectiveness and true benefit of robotic technology over conventional methods.
Key words:
robotically assisted cardiac surgery - minimally invasive surgery
