Cor triatriatum sinister (CTS) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly and is mainly corrected through conventional surgery through sternotomy. We described our successful novel surgical technique of totally robotic correction of CTS in one case of CTS with concomitant repair of atrial septal defect using da Vinci SI Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical, Inc, Sunnyvale, CA USA) with excellent surgical outcome. We conclude that robotic correction of CTS is a feasible and safe alternative to conventional surgical technique.
