Remote surgery: Bypass surgery done through tubes or scopes in which the surgery operates by sitting at a console and operates the scopes or tubes remotely. Much less invasive in that the cutting of the sternum or breastbone is not needed. The disadvantage is that it cannot reached all areas of blockage in some patients.
