机器人辅助内镜下心脏手术应用进展

Current Status of Robotically Assisted Cardiac Surgery

近十年来,心脏微创外科手术得到了长足发展,其中最引人注目的是机器人系统在心脏手术中的应用。借助机器人系统,心脏外科医生可以更好地通过胸部小切口完成各种心脏手术。而随着配套手术器械的改进,三维视觉系统的建立以及反馈系统的使用,国外已有多位医生在机器人辅助下完全完成了内镜下的心脏手术。

Over the past ten years, great improvements have been made in minimally invasive cardiac surgery procedures. The use ofcomputer-enhanced instruments is one of these improvements, enabling cardiac surgeons to accomplish cardiac operations through very small incisions. These instruments are developed and improved, 3-dimensional vision has been introduced to the process, and an effective feedback system has been developed. Many surgeons in foreign countries have accomplished totally endoscopic cardiac surgery.
