Single-port robot-assisted perineal radical prostatectomy with the da Vinci XI system: initial experience and learning curve using the cumulative sum method.

World journal of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the early functional and oncological outcomes of single-port robot-assisted perineal radical prostatectomy (sp-pRARP) using the da Vinci XI system and analyze its learning curve using the cumulative sum (CUSUM) method.

Learning curves and perioperative outcomes of single-incision robotic sacrocolpopexy on two different da Vinci surgical systems.

Journal of robotic surgery
This study aimed to report a single surgeon's early experience and learning curves of single-incision robotic sacrocolpopexy on two different robotic surgical platforms, namely, the single-site approach on da Vinci Xi and single-port approach on da V...

Learning curves in robot-assisted minimally invasive liver surgery at a high-volume center in Denmark: Report of the first 100 patients and review of literature.

Scandinavian journal of surgery : SJS : official organ for the Finnish Surgical Society and the Scandinavian Surgical Society
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Minimally invasive liver surgery is evolving worldwide, and robot-assisted liver surgery (RLS) can deliver obvious benefits for patients. However, so far no large case series have documented the learning curve for RLS.

The Surgical Learning Curve: Does Robotic Technical Skill Explain Differences in Operative Performance?

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
Prior studies on technical skills use small collections of videos for assessment. However, there is likely heterogeneity of performance among surgeons and likely improvement after training. If technical skill explains these differences, then it shou...

Assessing the learning curve of robot-assisted total mesorectal excision: a multicenter study considering procedural safety, pathological safety, and efficiency.

International journal of colorectal disease
PURPOSE: Evidence regarding the learning curve of robot-assisted total mesorectal excision is scarce and of low quality. Case-mix is mostly not taken into account, and learning curves are based on operative time, while preferably clinical outcomes an...

The learning curve for single-port transaxillary robotic thyroidectomy (SP-TART): experience through initial 50 cases of lobectomy.

Updates in surgery
The new da VinciĀ® single-port (SP) robotic system, which utilizes a smaller incision and work space compared to the previous versions, is suitable for thyroidectomy. This study aimed to evaluate the learning curve for SP transaxillary robotic thyroid...

Robotic major and minor hepatectomy: critical appraisal of learning curve and its impact on outcomes.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Robotic hepatectomy has gained increasing acceptance across the US. Although the robotic approach offers significant technical advantages, it is still bound by the individual surgeon's learning curve. Proficiency in this approach should t...

Perioperative Outcomes and Learning Curve of Robot-Assisted McKeown Esophagectomy.

Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the perioperative outcomes of patients undergoing robot-assisted McKeown esophagectomy (RAME) and the learning curves of surgeons performing RAME at a single center.

Implementing a pediatric robotic surgery program: future perspectives.

Cirugia pediatrica : organo oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Cirugia Pediatrica
INTRODUCTION: The minimally invasive approach using robotic technology is fully incorporated in the treatment of adult pathologies. The first international pediatric studies with a robotic approach date from 2002, and in Spain, from 2009. We present ...

[Robot-assisted Thoracic Surgery: Learning Curve and Cost Analysis in a German High-Volume Centre].

Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie
Robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is a rapidly evolving surgical technique in Europe. The aim of the study was to analyse the learning curve and safety during the establishment of a RATS-program at a high-volume thoracic surgery centre and to qu...
