Is right colectomy a complete learning procedure for a robotic surgical program?
Journal of Robotic Surgery, 2017This study analyses the utility of right colectomy as a learning procedure at the beginning of a robotic surgical program. The hypothesis is that right colectomy contains all the technical steps necessary to acquire basic abilities in robotics surgery. The first 23 consecutive robotic right colectomy performed at the beginning of a robotic program were

Malfunction and failure of robotic systems during general surgical procedures
Surgical Endoscopy, 2012There has been recent interest in using robots for general surgical procedures. This shift in technique raises the issue of patient safety with automated instrumentation. Although the safety of robotics has been established for urologic procedures, there are scant data on its use in general surgical procedures.

Robotic port-site hernias after general surgical procedures
Journal of Surgical Research, 2018With the increasing use of the robotic platform in general surgery, whether 8-mm ports should be closed comes into question. We sought to characterize the incidence of port-site hernias (PSHs) among patients undergoing robotic-assisted general surgery.A retrospective chart review of a single institutional database identified patients who underwent ...

Robotic surgical procedure for diffuse cavernous hemangioma of the rectum: A case report
Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery, 2020AbstractDiffuse cavernous hemangioma of the rectum (DCHR) is a relatively rare benign vascular disease. DCHR is marked by recurrent bleeding and anemia, and it is difficult to diagnose correctly. Here, we report the case of a 34‐year‐old man diagnosed with DCHR by colonoscopy, CT, and endoscopic ultrasonography.

Surgical Anatomy in Transoral Robotic Procedure: Basic Fundamentals
2016Transoral robotic surgery has proven to be an effective option for the management of different lesions involving several sub-sites of the head and neck, with the oropharynx the most commonly addressed one. Anatomical knowledge has been always and it is still now the fundamental premise to safely perform surgery.
