Abstract

Robotic surgery is a growing subspecialty in cardiac surgery. Custodiol HTK cardioplegia offers long-term myocardial protection, decreased metabolism, and eliminates multiple cardioplegia dosing. This article reviews the technique, strategy, and considerations for use of Custodiol HTK for myocardial protection in robotic mitral valve surgery.
