Predictive modeling for early detection of refractory esophageal stricture following esophageal atresia surgery: insight from a machine learning study.

Pediatric surgery international
BACKGROUND: Refractory esophageal stricture (RES) presents a challenging complication after esophageal atresia (EA) repair. Earlier identification of patients with RES could help clinical decision-making. However, there are currently limited articles...

Developing an Effective Off-the-job Training Model and an Automated Evaluation System for Thoracoscopic Esophageal Atresia Surgery.

Journal of pediatric surgery
BACKGROUND: Pediatric minimally invasive surgery requires advanced technical skills. Off-the-job training (OJT), especially when using disease-specific models, is an effective method of acquiring surgical skills. To achieve effective OJT, it is neces...

Assessment of paediatric thoracic robotic surgery.

Interactive cardiovascular and thoracic surgery
OBJECTIVES: Many studies have reported that robotic-assisted surgery is safe and feasible for paediatric cases. However, very few paediatric thoracic robotic cases have been described. The aim of this study was to share our preliminary experience wit...
