INTRODUCTION: This study reviews the current state of robotic surgery training for surgeons, including the various curricula, training methods, and tools available, as well as the challenges and limitations of these.
Limited data are available on postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing robotic total pancreatectomy (RTP). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the postoperative outcomes of RTP and open total pancreatectomy (OTP). We perfor...
The direct tactile assessment of surface textures during palpation is an essential component of open surgery that is impeded in minimally invasive and robot-assisted surgery. When indirectly palpating with a surgical instrument, the structural vibrat...
BACKGROUND: Prior studies on robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) have shown that preservation of the anterior periprostatic structures is associated with good functional outcomes in terms of urinary continence and erectile function. With...
Robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) is increasingly becoming established as a standard procedure in surgical centers for esophagectomy in cases of cancer. To date, RAMIE has been shown to have fewer postoperative complications and...
