Clinical Outcomes of Robotic Resection for Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma: A First, Multicenter, Trans-Atlantic, Expert-Center, Collaborative Study.

Annals of surgical oncology
INTRODUCTION: Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma is a difficult cancer to treat with frequent vascular invasion, local recurrence, and poor survival. Due to the need for biliary anastomosis and potential vascular resection, the standard approach is an open...

Robotic approach for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma: from Bismuth 1 to vascular resection.

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
BACKGROUND: Implementation of minimally invasive surgical approaches for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) has been relatively slow compared to other indications. This is due to the complexity of the disease and the need of advanced skills for the ...

Standardization of robotic right liver mobilization.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Since its introduction 2 decades ago, robotics has been increasingly used for resection of benign and malignant liver lesions. The robotic platform seems to preserve minimally invasive approach benefits, overcoming laparoscopy limitations...

Analysis of Clinical Outcomes After Robotic Hepatectomy Applying the Western-Model Southampton Laparoscopic Difficulty Scoring System. An Experience From a Tertiary US Hepatobiliary Center.

The American surgeon
BACKGROUND: Identification of resections with high risk of intraoperative complications is critical in guiding case selection for minimally invasive liver surgery. Several Japanese and European difficulty scoring systems have been proposed for laparo...

Robotic versus laparoscopic versus open major hepatectomy - an analysis of costs and postoperative outcomes in a single-center setting.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
PURPOSE: In the era of minimal-invasive surgery, the introduction of robotic liver surgery (RS) was accompanied by concerns about the increased financial expenses of the robotic technique in comparison to the established laparoscopic (LS) and convent...

Major hepatectomy in elderly patients: possible benefit from robotic platform utilization.

Surgical endoscopy
INTRODUCTION: Robotic surgery has been increasingly utilized, yet its application for hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) procedures remains low due to technical complexity, perceived financial burden, and unproven clinical benefits. We hypothesized that ...

Total robot-assisted recipient's surgery in living donor liver transplantation: First step towards the future.

Journal of hepato-biliary-pancreatic sciences
Lee and colleagues describe a groundbreaking total robot-assisted explant hepatectomy followed by robotic engraftment for a patient requiring a living donor liver transplant. This report represents a crucial step towards implementing robot-assisted l...
