Introduction: Principles of Robotic Instrumentation; The Robotic Team and Training; Anesthetic management for robotic cardiac and thoracic surgery: Cardiac, Thoracic; Cardiopulmonary perfusion during robotic cardiac surgery Cardiac Surgery: Coronary surgery (Internal thoracic artery take-down, On-pump - Endoscopic (Robotic) coronary artery bypass, Off-pump - Small thoracotomy coronary artery bypass); Mitral valve repair (Set-up options, Annuloplasty ring insertion, Conservative leaflet resections, Sliding plasties, Chordal transfers, Chordal replacements, P2 reduction (Haircut procedure), Alfieri method, Commissural prolapse repair, Annular calcium options, Annuloplasty suture versus clip fixation, Bileaflet prolapse, Anterior leaflet prolapse); Mitral valve replacement; Aortic valve replacement; Atrial Fibrillation Ablation (Cryomaze procedure, Microwave ablation, RF ablation); Resynchronization Therapy (Left ventricular lead placement); Myxoma Resection; Pericardial Drainage Thoracic Surgery: Lung Resection (Lobectomy, Bilobectomy, Segmentectomy, Pneumonectomy); Tracheoplasty, Tracheal Resection, Bronchoplasty, Sleeve Resection; Mediastinal Resection (Anterior Mediastinal Mass/Cyst Resection and Thymectomy, Middle Mediastinal Mass/Cyst Resection, Posterior Mediastinal Mass/Cyst); Esophagectomy (Transhiatal Esophagectomy, Two Phase Modified McKeown Three-Field Radical Esophagolymphadenectomy, Two Phase Ivor Lewis Two-Field Esophagolymphadenectomy); Diaphragmatic Procedures (Plication, Mass Resection); Hiatal Hernia (Nissen, Dor and Toupet Procedures, Belsey Procedure, Giant Hiatal Hernia Repair); Esophageal Dysmotility (Heller Myotomy, Long Myotomy); Esophageal Mass-Leiomyoma Resection
