PURPOSE: Gasless robot-assisted transaxillary hemithyroidectomy (RATH) is regarded as an alternative surgical option for thyroid operations. However, the associated steep learning curve is a clinical concern. This study evaluated the learning curve o...
To explore the learning curve of robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) in children. The clinical data, surgical information, and postoperative complications of consecutive cases of RALP performed by the same surgeon in Shanghai Children's Ho...
To compare the learning curve of mediastinal mass resection between robot-assisted surgery and thoracoscopic surgery. Retrospective perioperative data were collected from 160 mediastinal mass resection cases. Data included 80 initial consecutive vide...
Robot assisted surgery (RAS) is increasingly used, and besides conventional minimally invasive surgery (cMIS) surgeons are challenged to learn an increased array of skills. This study aimed to assess the influence of both learning curves on each othe...
PURPOSE: To investigate the learning curve in four basic surgical skills in laparoscopic and robotic surgeries, and evaluate the approximate time needed to reach sufficient expertise in performing these tasks with the avatera® system.
BACKGROUND: Robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) is technically demanding, and 20-50 cases are required to surpass the learning curve. This study aimed to show our experience of 76 cases from the introduction of RPD and report the changes in surgica...

To determine the perioperative quality assessment results and learning curves for robot-assisted anatomical lung resection. We analyzed the data of the initial 400 patients who underwent lobectomies or segmentectomies by 1 surgeon from January 2020...
BACKGROUND: Learning curve, training, and cost impede widespread implementation of new technology. Neurosurgical robotic technology introduces challenges to visuospatial reasoning and requires the acquisition of new fine motor skills. Studies detaili...
