Robotic coronary and intra-cardiac surgery has been available for more than 25 years. In this period, multiple studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of robotic surgery over conventional open surgery. Throughout the years, technical developments have enabled us to perform totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass (TECAB) grafting.

- Severe aortic stenosis (AS) leads to changes in the heart’s left ventricle and can affect blood flow and resistance in coronary arteries.
- A study assessed coronary blood flow and microvascular resistance in AS patients before and after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and found no immediate changes right after the procedure.
- Six months post-TAVI, patients showed significant improvement in hyperaemic perfusion, indicating that over time, left ventricular remodelling positively affected blood flow during increased demand.
