Abstract:
Robotic-assisted percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has emerged as an alternative to manual PCI to mitigate the risk of occupational hazards for operators, and to increase precision of device placement. Previous studies have reported the safety and efficacy of robotic-assisted PCI in simpler lesions, and recently the safety and efficacy of robotic-assisted chronic total occlusion PCI have been reported. Herein, we report two cases with three-vessel disease, including total occlusions, successfully treated robotically utilizing newer guidewire and device automation.
