The robotic platform may provide advantages over sternotomy including improved visualization and greater dexterity. With emerging evidence increasingly supporting the importance of concomitantly addressing tricuspid regurgitation and atrial fibrillation, robotic surgeons should be encouraged to perform appropriate concomitant procedures where indicated.

A 63-year-old woman with history of mediastinal radiation was admitted for decompensated heart failure due to severe post-radiation aortic and mitral valve disease. To reduce cardiopulmonary bypass time and postoperative pulmonary complications, she underwent a hybrid approach with robotic mitral valve replacement and transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Objectives: To evaluate the midterm survival, clinical, and hemodynamic outcomes of the On-X mechanical mitral valve, based on the 5-year results of the Prospective Randomized On-X Anticoagulation Clinical Trial (PROACT).
Methods: PROACT Mitral was a multicenter study evaluating 401 patients who underwent mitral valve replacement (MVR) with either Standard or Conform-X On-X mitral valves, comparing low-dose and standard-dose warfarin. Here, we report pre-specified, secondary outcomes of survival, New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Classification, and valve hemodynamics as assessed by core-lab-adjudicated echocardiography at 1, 3, and 5 years within the pooled population.
