Complications of Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgical Procedures
Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 1999All surgical and anesthetic procedures convey some degree of risk. New procedures in cardiac surgery are being developed for which patterns of complications are just beginning to emerge. The experience with minimally invasive direct coronary bypass, transmyocar dial laser revascularization, and Port-Access cardiac surgery is reviewed with emphasis on ...

[Future trend of minimally invasive surgery platform and surgical procedure].
Zhonghua wei chang wai ke za zhi = Chinese journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2021In the past 30 years, minimally invasive surgery has been greatly improved with the development of the energy platform, instrument platform, and imaging platform. Taking colorectal cancer surgery as an example, the five elements of surgical procedure have developed to a certain extent.

A technique for measuring contact force distribution in minimally invasive surgical procedures
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 1997This paper investigates new methods for measuring forces and tactile sense as a contribution towards relaying the sense of touch to the surgeon. The approach used is to determine a distribution of contact force using a small number of sensory outputs to detect the bending of a surface of known behaviour.

Vibrotactile force feedback system for minimally invasive surgical procedures
2006 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, 2006Lack of adequate force feedback for the surgeon in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) can lead to unnecessary trauma to tissue and adverse events during surgery. The successful use of vibrotactile stimulation to augment overloaded or deficient sensory modes in the human operator in other application areas warrants an investigation into its application in

35. Pediatric Minimally Invasive Surgery: Specific Surgical Procedures [PDF]
, 2012 This chapter describes laparoscopic and thoracoscopic procedures commonly performed in children. For procedures also performed in adults (such as appendectomy or cholecystectomy), it emphasizes the points where the pediatric considerations may differ. It also describes several procedures unique to the pediatric surgical population.

A new method for digital video documentation in surgical procedures and minimally invasive surgery
Surgical Endoscopy, 2003Documentation of surgical procedures is limited to the accuracy of description, which depends on the vocabulary and the descriptive prowess of the surgeon. Even analog video recording could not solve the problem of documentation satisfactorily due to the abundance of recorded material.

The Radius Surgical System – A New Device for Complex Minimally Invasive Procedures in Urology?
European Urology, 2007Complex laparoscopic procedures in urology are technically demanding with an extended learning curve. Robotic systems add significant cost to laparoscopic procedures. We therefore evaluated the use of the Radius Surgical System (RSS), a mechanical manipulator, for complex laparoscopic cases in urology.The RSS (Tuebingen Scientific) consists of two hand-

Minimally Invasive Surgical Site Infection in Procedure-Targeted ACS NSQIP Pancreaticoduodenectomies
Journal of Surgical Research, 2019Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) incurs a surgical site infection rate of up to 18%. Published rates after minimally invasive PD are comparable or superior to open, but data are limited to high-volume, single-institution series. This study aimed to determine national outcomes. We hypothesized nationwide infections would be reduced with a minimally invasive

Shape-memory polyurethane cellular solids for minimally invasive surgical procedures
2015Due to their peculiar properties, shape-memory polymers (SMPs) can be considered ideal candidate materials for the repair of tissue defects using mini-invasive procedures, since body temperature can be used as a driving force to activate the shape-memory behavior.
