Robotic foregut surgery

The International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, 2006
Computer-assisted surgical systems, or surgical robots as they are more commonly called, are complex new devices which may be used to perform minimally invasive surgical procedures. There are certain technical limitations to a traditional laparoscopic approach that these devices can help a surgeon to overcome.

Robotic Foregut Surgery

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2020
Robotic-assisted surgery for benign esophageal disease is described for treatment of achalasia, gastroesophageal reflux, paraesophageal hernias, epiphrenic diverticula, and benign esophageal masses. Robotic Heller myotomy has operative times, relief of dysphagia, and conversion rates comparable to laparoscopic approach, with lower incidence of ...

Robotics in Surgery

Scandinavian Journal of Surgery, 2009
Leonardo da Vinci, the master artist, is credited for one of the early concepts of robots in the late 1400’s. His genius propelled the idea of a mechanical device with the capability of automation, repetitive motion and wristed joints. While his idea of a mechanical knight was primitive, the concept led to a landslide of innovations.

Robotics for Surgery

Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering, 1999
▪ Abstract  Robotic technology is enhancing surgery through improved precision, stability, and dexterity. In image-guided procedures, robots use magnetic resonance and computed tomography image data to guide instruments to the treatment site. This requires new algorithms and user interfaces for planning procedures; it also requires sensors for ...

Robotic Ear Surgery

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2020
Robots under research and development for otology can be classified as collaborative (intervention is constrained by the robot but surgeon directly actuates the end-effector), teleoperated (surgeon remotely controls a tool with modification [eg, tremor reduction] by the robot), or autonomous (surgeon monitors the robot performing a task).

Robotic cardiovascular surgery

Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2006
Cardiovascular surgery has traditionally been performed through a median sternotomy, allowing the surgeon generous access to the heart and surrounding great vessels. Recently, less invasive methods have been developed to allow the surgeon the same amount of dexterity and accessibility to the heart, thus resulting in a paradigm shift in cardiac surgery.

Robotic Biliary Surgery

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2020
Robotic cholecystectomy is safe and feasible approach and can be combined with common bile duct exploration to address complicated pathology in a single setting. This article summarizes reported outcomes after robotic biliary surgery. A technical overview of robotic multiport and single port cholecystectomy is provided.

Robotic Surgery Systems

Biomedical Instrumentation & Technology, 2014
For many people, the term “robotic surgery” likely evokes one of two images. One is Asimo, the Honda robot, performing a complex heart-valve replacement with the precision and finesse of the most skilled surgeon. The other is more along the lines of an industrial robot found welding on an automotive assembly line—performing surgery by rote programming ...

Robotic Thoracic Surgery

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2020
Minimally invasive surgery for diseases of the chest offsets the morbidity of painful thoracic incisions while allowing for meticulous dissection of major anatomic structures. This benefit translates to improved outcomes and recovery following the surgical management of benign and malignant esophageal pathologic condition, mediastinal tumors, and lung ...

Robotic surgery update

Surgical Endoscopy, 2004
Minimally invasive surgical techniques have revolutionized the field of surgery. Telesurgical manipulators (robots) and new information technologies strive to improve upon currently available minimally invasive techniques and create new possibilities.A retrospective review of all robotic cases at a single academic medical center from August 2000 until ...
