Mayo Clinic heart surgeons work with an experienced surgical team to perform robot-assisted heart surgery. In this type of procedure, surgeons reach your heart through small incisions between the ribs of your chest. The exact maneuvers performed in traditional open chest operation are duplicated by the surgeon using robotic arms, rather than his or her hands. During this procedure, your surgeon works at a remote console and views your heart in a magnified high-definition 3-D view on a video monitor. From the remote console, your surgeon's hand movements are translated precisely to the robotic arms at the operating table, which move similarly to the human wrist. A second surgeon and surgical team assists at the operating table, changing surgical instruments attached to the robotic arms. To connect with other patients, visit Mayo Clinic Connect:

In summer 2023, Lauren’s routine run in Minneapolis suddenly felt off—she was exhausted within half a mile, and her wearable showed a sharp drop in heart rate variability despite being told she was “healthy.”

Trusting her instincts and her husband Joe’s advice, she got an echocardiogram that revealed severe mitral valve prolapse and an enlarged heart. She chose Mayo Clinic for robotic repair, and after meeting Dr. Arghami, felt confident in her decision.

After surgery, her valve was “sealing perfectly.” Lauren is deeply grateful to Dr. Arghami and his team for their exceptional care.
