Abstract
Left-sided partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection to the coronary sinus is a rare congenital cardiac defect. Surgical repair is indicated to prevent cardiopulmonary morbidities that may occur in later age. Although the conventional median sternotomy or thoracotomy incisions are used during surgical repair, robotic surgery can be a feasible alternative approach to this pathology. In this case, we report a 14-year-old child, who was diagnosed with left partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection to the coronary sinus. A total endoscopic robotic repair was successfully done via right atriotomy approach. After routing of the pulmonary venous return from the left lung to the left atrium, the interatrial septum was reconstructed with a pericardial patch. We report a successful use of totally endoscopic robotic approach in a patient diagnosed with left-sided partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection.Entities:
