This study aims to examine the feasibility of telerobotic surgery by validating the communication environment and local/remote robot operation. The performance of remote surgery over a commercial line was equivalent to that of the local environment. Therefore, remote surgery using a commercial line can be performed safely, indicating that we have the ...

Endoscopic CBD stone removal is more difficult with stones larger than 2 mm than with distal CBD diameter or round or square‐shaped stones. Therefore, endoscopic large papillary balloon dilatation (ELPBD) is probably more required for stones larger than 2 mm than for distal CBD; likewise, round or square‐shaped stones are likely more required for ELPBD

An evidence based guide to a safe intraoperative approach of avoiding iatrogenic lesions during difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomies [PDF]
Introduction: Although there are many sources for iatrogenic lesions during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, only a few stand out as being one of the most difficult to predict due to their nature of being very hard to diagnose before surgery.
