Article Abstract
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery continues to evolve and expand as technology and surgeon experience develops. Among the barriers to the adoption of non-sternotomy minimally invasive valve surgery are the challenges associated with suture placement. Automated technology enables ergonomic remote suture placement that allows for reproducible results while shortening the learning curve. The objective of this review is to describe the latest advancements in automated suturing technology for minimally invasive valve surgery.
