2 Fig 1 Robotic-assisted construction of the aortic valve bypass conduit between the left ventricular apex and the descending thoracic aorta. (A) A minithoracotomy is made in the sixth intercostal space, and a 12-mm camera port is placed slightly posterior to the minithoracotomy, overlying the site of the aortic anastomosis. Right and left arm ports are in the fourth and eighth intercostal spaces. (B) After creating an aortotomy, the distal anastomosis is constructed. (C) Insertion of the apical connector in the apex completes the aortic valve bypass.
