Robotically enhanced minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (RE-MIDCAB) graft of the left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) and/or the first diagonal branch might be the least traumatic surgical revascularization approach available so far. When combined with fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the non-LAD vessels, this "hybrid" strategy takes advantage of the survival benefit conferred by the internal mammary artery graft to the LAD while providing the patients with a truly minimally invasive, functionally complete revascularization.
