Minimally Invasive Heart Surgery

Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is a fairly standard procedure for people with blocked arteries. Thanks to advanced robotic technology, Willis Knighton surgeons began offering minimally-invasive CABG in 2010. Benefits are:

Significantly smaller incisions and scars
Reduced chance of infection
Shorter hospital stay and quicker recovery
No splitting of the breastbone (cracking chest)
Less pain
Elimination of heart/lung machine during surgery (in many cases)
Minimized need for blood transfusion
