[DeRAS I-German situation of robotic-assisted surgery-an online survey].

Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen
BACKGROUND: Robotic assistance has become established in surgery but is not yet a standard procedure. The current status of clinical dissemination in Germany remains unclear. Industry independent sources are scarce.

Initial experience with a suprapubic single-port robotic right hemicolectomy in patients with colon cancer.

Techniques in coloproctology
BACKGROUND: We developed a novel suprapubic single-port robotic right hemicolectomy (spRHC) procedure for patients with right colon cancer using a da Vinci SP Surgical System. The aim of this study was to determine the safety and feasibility of this ...

The Impact of New Surgical Techniques on Geographical Unwarranted Variation: The Case of Benign Hysterectomy.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Since the 1980s, the international literature has reported variations for healthcare services, especially for elective ones. Variations are positive if they reflect patient preferences, while if they do not, they are unwarranted, and thus avoidable. ...

Robotic resection for hydatid disease of the liver.

BMJ case reports
Robotic-assisted surgery for the management of hepatic echinococcosis was introduced in 2016. The advantage it offers over laparoscopy is less rigidity with the use of the 360° rotation of the Endo-Wrist technology, thus allowing the preservation of ...

[Robot-assisted surgical procedures in urology: An advance at any cost?].

Progres en urologie : journal de l'Association francaise d'urologie et de la Societe francaise d'urologie

Laparotomic versus robotic surgery in elderly patients with endometrial cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

International journal of gynaecology and obstetrics: the official organ of the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics
BACKGROUND: Although robotics has been shown to improve outcomes in some high-difficulty surgical category patients, it is unclear if such an approach may improve outcomes in elderly patients with endometrial carcinoma (EC).

The clinical impact of robot-assisted laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery associated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Asian journal of endoscopic surgery
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery has been performed in various fields, especially in the pelvic cavity. However, little is known about the utility of robot-assisted laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery associated with robot-assisted ra...

Analytical Modeling of the Interaction Between Soft Balloon-Like Actuators and Soft Tubular Environment for Gastrointestinal Inspection.

Soft robotics
Accessing tubular environment is critical in medicine. For example, gastrointestinal tract related cancers are the leading causes of cancer deaths globally. To diagnose and treat these cancers, clinicians need accessing the gastrointestinal tract, fo...

[Medico-economic evaluation of the impact of measures to adapt to the switch to surgery robot-assisted in urology].

Progres en urologie : journal de l'Association francaise d'urologie et de la Societe francaise d'urologie
INTRODUCTION: The development of robot-assisted urological surgery is held back by the lack of robust medico-economic analyses and their heterogeneity. We conducted a medico-economic study to evaluate the implementation of measures to optimize the tr...

Initial experience of Chinese surgical robot "Micro Hand S″-assisted versus open and laparoscopic total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer: Short-term outcomes in a single center.

Asian journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: A Chinese surgical robot, Micro Hand S, was introduced for clinical use as a novel robotic platform. This study aimed to comprehensively compare the early experience of the Micro Hand S robot-assisted total mesorectal excision (TME) with ...
