The purpose of this study was to introduce an "eight-step modularized procedure (M-RET)" for trans-subxiphoid robotic extended thymectomy for patients with myasthenia gravis (MG). Its safety and feasi...
This retrospective study included 87 consecutive MG patients who underwent trans-subxiphoid robotic extended thymectomy at our institution between September 2016 and August 2021. According to differen...
There were 41 (47.1%) patients in the M-RET group and 46 (52.9%) patients in the T-RET group. The M-RET group resected a greater amount of mediastinal adipose tissues and required more dissection time...
The eight-step modularized technique of trans-subxiphoid robotic extended thymectomy was verified to be a safe, effective, radical procedure, which offers unique superiority over ectopic thymic tissue...
To study the published literature on robotic-assisted pull-through procedures for anorectal malformation....
A PubMed search was done on 10th April 2024, with the words "robotic AND Anorectal malformation". The articles were screened for relevance and the data were compiled on the safety, feasibility, techni...
The search robotic and anorectal malformation gave ten articles. Two were excluded as they were not relevant. Two articles were added from cross-reference. Ten publications on robotic-assisted procedu...
Robotic surgery is feasible in infants with ARM and safe in expert hands. Robotics is a very effective tool with its better ergonomics, tremor filtration, 3D magnification, and dexterity. Increasing a...
Urology has been at the forefront of adopting laparoscopic and robot-assisted techniques to improve patient outcomes. This systematic review aimed to examine the literature relating to the learning cu...
In accordance with PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, a systematic literature search strategy was employed across PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane ...
Of 3702 records identified, 97 eligible studies were included for narrative synthesis. Learning curves are mapped using an array of measurements including operative time (OT), estimated blood loss, co...
There was considerable variation in the definitions of outcome measures and performance thresholds, with poor reporting of potential confounders. Future studies should use multiple surgeons and large ...
Implementation of robot-assisted procedures is growing. Utilization within the country's largest healthcare network, the Veterans Health Administration, is unclear....
A retrospective cohort study using data from the Department of Veterans Affairs Corporate Data Warehouse from January 2015 through December 2019. Trends in robot utilization for cholecystectomy, ventr...
We identified 119,191 patients, of which 5689 (4.77%) received a robotic operation. The proportion of operations performed robotically increased from 1.49% to 10.55% (7.08-fold change; slope, 2.14% pe...
Robot utilization in general surgery is increasing at different rates across the United States in the Veterans Health Administration. Future studies should investigate the regional disparities and dri...
Tendon-sheath structures are commonly utilized to drive surgical robots due to their compact size, flexibility, and straightforward controllability. However, long-distance cable tension estimation pos...
Although robotic surgery has rapidly spread in pancreatectomy [1], the procedure is performed by the da Vinci™ Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical Inc., CA), the most common surgical robot in the worl...
A 68-year-old man who was found to have the mass lesion in the pancreatic tail in a medical examination. Investigations, including various imaging studies suggested a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer (F...
Five trocars, including one port for the assistant surgeon, were placed at the upper abdomen. The operation unit was rolled in from the right side (Fig. 2). The patient successfully underwent robotic ...
This is the first report of robotic pancreatectomy using the hinotori™ system, which showed the favorable perioperative results. The accumulation of experience and further studies are required to conf...
Portal lymphadenectomy is an integral part of gallbladder, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and perihilar cholangiocarcinoma resection to improve staging and prognostication. This is also believed by ...
Robotic colorectal procedures may overcome the disadvantages of laparoscopic surgery. While the literature has multiple studies from specialized centers, experience from general surgeons is minimal. T...
Over the past 2 decades, the use and importance of robotic surgery in minimally invasive surgery has increased. Across various surgical specialties, robotic technology has gained popularity through it...
The hinotori surgical robot system, a newly launched platform, has already been utilized in several urological robotic surgeries; however, limited information is available in terms of its feasibility ...
This study included a total of 11 consecutive patients with adrenal tumors undergoing RAA between July 2020 and November 2022 at our institution. Comprehensive perioperative outcomes in these patients...
Median age, body mass index (BMI), and tumor diameter in the hinotori group were 48 years, 27.5 kg/m...
Despite being a small case series, this is the first study focusing on RAA using the hinotori surgical robot system, which could be efficaciously performed, resulting in the achievement of perioperati...
