Zusammenfassung: | Background
Port‐access (PORT) and robotic (ROBO) mitral repair are well established, but differences in patient selection and outcomes are not well documented.
Methods
A retrospective analysis was performed on 129 ROBO and 628 PORT mitral repairs at one institution. ROBO patients had 4 cm nonrib spreading incisions with robotic assistance, while PORT patients had 6–8 cm rib spreading incisions with thoracoscopic assistance. Propensity score analysis matched patients for differences in baseline characteristics.
Results
Unmatched ROBO patients were younger (58 ± 11 vs. 61 ± 13, p = .05), had a higher percentage of males (77% vs. 63%, p = .003) and had less NYHA Class 3–4 symptoms (11% vs. 21%, p |
