Robotic Endoscopic Excision Accessory Mitral Leaflet
Accessory mitral valve is an uncommon cause of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in the adult patient. 1 Excisional therapy has traditionally been performed through the proximal aorta by using a median sternotomy. We report the excision of an obstructive accessory mitral leaflet through the left atrium using a right chest endoscopic approach with the da Vinci Robotic System (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, Calif).
