Abstract
An alternative strategy to either surgical or percutaneous coronary revascularization is a hybrid approach with robotic grafting of the internal thoracic artery to the left anterior descending coronary artery, either preceded or followed by percutaneous stenting of other diseased vessels. Robotic coronary surgery can be done either using arrested-heart or off-pump coronary stabilization methods. Hybrid operating/catheterization suites now are being used to perform simultaneous procedures: however, there still are challenges when using this approach. This chapter not only describes techniques for performing successful hybrid coronary revascularization but also delineates potential problems and solutions.
