| Abstract: | The introduction of robotic assistance has enabled totally endoscopic closed chest procedures, most often by left internal thoracic artery to left (LITA) anterior descending. Endoscopic stabilizers have made off-pump surgery feasible. We report the first case of a totally endoscopic off-pump bilateral ITA grafting in a 58-year-old patient. |
