Indications, technique, and results of robotic pancreatoduodenectomy.

Updates in surgery
Robotic assistance improves surgical dexterity in minimally invasive operations, especially when fine dissection and multiple sutures are required. As such, robotic assistance could be rewarding in the setting of robotic pancreatoduodenectomy (RPD). ...

Multicentre study of robotic intersphincteric resection for low rectal cancer.

The British journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: There is a lack of information regarding the oncological safety of robotic intersphincteric resection (ISR) with coloanal anastomosis. The objective of this study was to compare the long-term feasibility of robotic compared with laparosco...

Adherence of the indication to European Association of Urology guideline recommended pelvic lymph node dissection at a high-volume center: Differences between open and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
PURPOSE: Contemporary adherence of the indication to European Association of Urology (EAU) guideline recommendation for pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) at either open (ORP) or robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) at a high-volume center is...

European Association of Endoscopic Surgeons (EAES) consensus statement on the use of robotics in general surgery.

Surgical endoscopy
Following an extensive literature search and a consensus conference with subject matter experts the following conclusions can be drawn: 1. Robotic surgery is still at its infancy, and there is a great potential in sophisticated electromechanical syst...

A Match-Pair Analysis of Open Versus Laparoscopic Liver Surgery.

JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In addition to general advantages of laparoscopic over open surgery, such as better cosmesis and faster recovery, laparoscopic liver surgery offers specific advantages. Improved liver function and potentially earlier postop...

Implementation of a multidisciplinary robotic centre in a high-volume university hospital.

Danish medical journal
INTRODUCTION: We describe the initiation of a multidisciplinary centre for robotic surgery including the implementation of robotic-assisted procedures as standard procedure for the majority of cancer operations in urology, gynaecology and gastrointes...
