Abstract
- da Vinci(TM) Surgical System is an advanced mode of minimal invasive surgery, using 3-dimensional imaging system and robotic arms which can mimic the dexterity of the human hand. Thus, various operations can be performed with minimal incision and limited surgical field and the merits of minimal invasive surgery can be maximized by using it. We report our first experience of robotic open heart surgery using the da Vinci(TM) Surgical System for repairing atrial septal defect.
