Application of machine learning models to identify predictors of good outcome after laparoscopic fundoplication.

Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic fundoplication remains the gold standard treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, 10% to 20% of patients experience new, persistent, or recurrent symptoms warranting further treatment. Potential predictors for ...

Learning curves and procedural times in Senhance®-robotic assisted fundoplication: results from 237 consecutive patients undergoing robotic fundoplication in a single center as part of the European TRUST Robotic Surgery Registry Study.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Gastroesophageal reflux disease requiring an operative solution is common. Minimally invasive surgery to generate an anti-reflux barrier at the distal esophagus following the principle of the "floppy Nissen" technique has become the gold ...

Robotic Myotomy and Partial Fundoplication for Achalasia.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
Laparoscopic Heller myotomy is currently considered the standard definitive treatment of achalasia. With the advancements in technology, robotic Heller myotomy has emerged as an alternative approach to traditional laparoscopy due to three-dimensional...

Surgery of the alimentary tract for benign and malignant disease with the novel robotic platform HUGO RAS. A first world report of safety and feasibility.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
INTRODUCTION: As robotic surgery increases its reach, novel platforms are being released. We present the first 17 consecutive cases of alimentary tract surgery performed with the Hugo RAS (Medtronic).

Robotic-assisted foregut surgery is associated with lower rates of complication and shorter post-operative length of stay.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Two of the most common foregut operations are laparoscopic Heller myotomy and laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. Robotic assistance, compared to standard laparoscopic approach, may potentially grant surgeons advantages such as enhanced v...

Implementing a pediatric robotic surgery program: future perspectives.

Cirugia pediatrica : organo oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Cirugia Pediatrica
INTRODUCTION: The minimally invasive approach using robotic technology is fully incorporated in the treatment of adult pathologies. The first international pediatric studies with a robotic approach date from 2002, and in Spain, from 2009. We present ...

A systematic review of robot-assisted anti-reflux surgery to examine reporting standards.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted anti-reflux surgery (RA-ARS) is increasingly being used to treat refractory gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. The IDEAL (Idea, Development, Exploration, Assessment, Long-term follow up) Collaboration's framework aims to improve the ev...

Robotic single port anti-reflux surgery: Initial worldwide experience of two cases with a novel surgical approach to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
INTRODUCTION: To date, no anti-reflux operations have been reported with the new da Vinci Single-Port (single port (SP)) robotic platform. We aimed to describe this novel surgical approach and evaluate its safety and feasibility.

Robotic Transgastric Reconstruction of the Double Lumen Esophagus.

Innovations (Philadelphia, Pa.)
Double lumen esophagus is an extremely rare condition, developing in most cases as a complication of antireflux procedures or gastroesophageal reflux itself secondary to the severe inflammatory process in and around the lower esophagus. We describe a...

Robotic redo Heller myotomy: how I do it?

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
BACKGROUND: Despite the high success rate associated with Heller myotomy in the treatment of primary achalasia, symptom persistence or relapse occurs in approximately 10-20% of patients. Unfortunately, the ideal treatment after failed myotomy is not ...
