At a glance

Joshua Scheinerman is associate surgical director of NYU’s HCM programme. The hospital identifies him as a lead operator in its first reported robotic trans-mitral myectomy, performed through right-chest ports.

Named HCM role

NYU lists Scheinerman as associate surgical director and an adult cardiac surgeon with robotic experience.

A reported operative example

The hospital describes robotic trans-mitral myectomy led by Scheinerman with Eugene Grossi and Robert Nampi; the patient left hospital on postoperative day four.

A case is not a cohort

This report establishes a named operation and team, not a robotic-myectomy success rate or evidence that every HCM anatomy is suitable.

NYU’s first reported robotic HCM case

The hospital describes trans-mitral myectomy through right-chest ports, led by Joshua Scheinerman with Eugene Grossi and Robert Nampi. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 4.

How to interpret this: One reported robotic case is not a personal cohort or a success-rate estimate. Do not transfer NYU’s more-than-600 myectomy programme count to this surgeon or robotic method.

New York, United States

NYU’s HCM programme combines medical treatment, imaging and surgery. Swistel’s work addresses elongated leaflets and papillary attachments; Scheinerman is named in the hospital’s first reported robotic trans-mitral myectomy. The valve service also includes Kodali’s transcatheter expertise.
