The Feasibility, Proficiency, and Mastery Learning Curves in 635 Robotic Pancreatoduodenectomies Following a Multicenter Training Program: "Standing on the Shoulders of Giants".

Annals of surgery
OBJECTIVE: To assess the feasibility, proficiency, and mastery learning curves for robotic pancreatoduodenectomy (RPD) in "second-generation" RPD centers following a multicenter training program adhering to the IDEAL framework.

Learning Curves in Establishing a New Minimally Invasive Pancreas Program.

The American surgeon
INTRODUCTION: Robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (rPD) is a complex operation with a reported learning curve of 80 cases. Two recent graduates of a formal robotic complex general surgical oncology training program have been performing rPD at our institu...

Learning curve of robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty and its effects on implant position in asian patients: a prospective study.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (r-TKA) can reportedly achieve more accurate implant positioning than conventional total knee arthroplasty (c-TKA), although its learning curve is controversial. Moreover, few studies have investigat...

Adoption of Robotic Adrenalectomy: A Two-Institution Study of Surgeon Learning Curve.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Robotic adrenalectomy is feasible and safe, yet concerns over increased operative times and the learning curve (LC) for proficiency have limited its adoption. This study aimed to assess the LC for robotic adrenalectomy.

Learning Curve of Robot-Assisted Lymph Node Dissection of the Left Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve: A Retrospective Study of 417 Patients.

Annals of surgical oncology
OBJECTIVE: Left recurrent laryngeal nerve (no.106recL) lymph node dissection is a challenging procedure, and robotic-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) may have some advantages. This study aimed to determine the learning curve of no.10...

Robot-assisted general surgery is safe during the learning curve: a 5-year Australian experience.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted general surgery has become increasingly common in the Australian public sector since 2003. It provides significant technical advantages compared to laparoscopic surgery. Currently, it is estimated that the learning curve for surgeons s...

Mastering the Learning Curve for Robotic-Assisted Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery.

The Annals of thoracic surgery
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have evaluated the learning curve to achieve competency in robotic-assisted coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) but have not identified thresholds for mastery. Robotic-assisted CABG is a minimally invasive alternative ...

Cumulative sum analysis of the learning curve of laparoendoscopic single-site robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Asian journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: Radical prostatectomy has become the gold standard for treating localized prostate cancer. Improvement in the single-site technique and surgeon's skill reduces not only the hospital duration but also the number of wounds. Realizing the le...

Defining the learning curve of robotic portal segmentectomy in small pulmonary lesions: a prospective observational study.

Journal of robotic surgery
Although robotic segmentectomy has been applied for the treatment of small pulmonary lesions for many years, studies on the learning curve of robotic segmentectomy are quite limited. Thus, we aim to investigate the learning curve of robotic portal se...
