Ten years of paediatric robotic surgery: Lessons learned.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Costs and a low total number of cases may be obstacles to the successful implementation of a paediatric robotic surgery programme. The aim of this study was to evaluate a decade of paediatric robotic surgery and to reflect upon factors fo...

Heller myotomy perforation: robotic visualization decreases perforation rate and revisional surgery is a perforation risk.

Journal of robotic surgery
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has improved surgical access to the foregut. While the benefits of MIS versus open surgery are well accepted, the relative benefits of laparoscopic versus robotic approaches continue to be debated. Procedure-specific ...

Short-term outcome after robot-assisted hiatal hernia and anti-reflux surgery-is there a benefit for the patient?

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
PURPOSE: The robotic system was introduced to overcome the technical limitations of conventional laparoscopy. For complex oncological operations, it appears to offer further advantages. With regard to hiatal hernia repair, its role has yet to be dete...

[Robot-Assisted Repeated Fundoplication in Children and Adolescents].

Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie
BACKGROUND: Recurrent gastroesophageal reflux symptoms in adolescents and young adults who underwent fundoplication in childhood present a technical challenge for the surgeon. The distal oesophagus and hiatus are difficult to access by laparotomy, th...

Comparison of FreeHand robot-assisted with human-assisted laparoscopic fundoplication.

Minimally invasive therapy & allied technologies : MITAT : official journal of the Society for Minimally Invasive Therapy
OBJECTIVE: To compare the safety, operative time and feasibilty of FreeHand robot (FreeHand Ltd, Guildford, United Kingdom) with manual camera control approach for Laparoscopic Fundoplication.

Enabling single-site laparoscopy: the SPORT platform.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The Single Port Orifice Robotic Technology (SPORT) Surgical System by Titan Medical Inc. is designed to overcome the inherent challenges of minimally invasive single-access procedures. The aim of this preclinical study was to evaluate the...

[Clinical effects of robot-assisted esophageal hiatal hernia repair and laparoscopic esophageal hiatal hernia repair: a retrospective comparative study].

Zhonghua wai ke za zhi [Chinese journal of surgery]
To analyze the short-term clinical effects of robot-assisted and laparoscopic repair of the hiatal hernia. The clinical data of 56 patients underwent minimally invasive hiatal hernia repair from January 2021 to January 2022 in the Department of Min...

Intraoperative Assessment of Esophagogastric Junction Distensibility During Laparoscopic Heller Myotomy.

Surgical laparoscopy, endoscopy & percutaneous techniques
We sought to characterize the changes in esophagogastric junction (EGJ) distensibility during Heller Myotomy with Dor fundoplication using the EndoFLIP device. Intraoperative distensibility measurements on 14 patients undergoing Heller myotomy with D...
