Abstract
Atrial fibrillation is one of the commonest complications after cardiac surgery and it is associated with considerable morbidity and increase in mortality. Recently, robotic approach to many heart operations has become feasible and reproducible. We here investigate and review the incidence of atrial fibrillation after robotic cardiac surgery. We found that its incidence is overall low and less than in conventional heart surgery.Entities:
