This review synthesizes evidence on the incremental predictive value of task-specific kinematic performance data combined with preoperative clinical variables for robotic surgery outcomes and surgeon experience prediction.
This study identifies a learning curve in robotic gastroenterostomy during robotic pancreatoduodenectomy and shows that better surgical performance reduces delayed gastric emptying risk, suggesting OSATS scoring as a valuable training tool.
This study externally validates PD-ROBOSCORE as a predictor of major postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy, demonstrating its comparable performance across open and robotic techniques and highlighting its utility in surg
A multicenter randomized clinical trial shows robotic-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy yields higher lymph node clearance with comparable safety to conventional thoracolaparoscopic approaches for esophageal adenocarcinoma.
This review synthesizes evidence on deep learning models for assessing technical skills and error detection in robotic-assisted vaginal cuff closure, emphasizing objective surgical skill evaluation, model accuracy, and implications for surg
A large Medicare cohort found low 5-year operative recurrence after groin hernia repair overall, with laparoscopic repair showing the lowest adjusted risk and robotic-assisted repair offering no recurrence advantage despite rapid uptake.
A retrospective study reveals robotic gastrectomy achieves higher textbook outcome rates than laparoscopic and open surgery, correlating with improved 1-year survival in gastric cancer patients.
A retrospective study of 592 patients found equivalent outcomes between robotic and laparoscopic cholecystectomy regardless of acute cholecystitis severity. The only difference was slightly longer hospital stay in grade II-V patients underg
This review synthesizes evidence from over 54,000 patients, revealing that minimally invasive hepatopancreatic surgery significantly reduces hospital charges compared to open approaches, primarily by mitigating complications and shortening
A national cohort study of 54,174 patients reveals that laparoscopic and robotic approaches for liver and pancreatic resections significantly lower hospital charges compared to open surgery, primarily by reducing complications and shortenin
A multicentre randomized controlled trial demonstrates that robotic telesurgery over distances up to 2800 km is non-inferior to local surgery for urological procedures, maintaining high success rates, low latency, and equivalent safety prof
An international randomized trial found minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy (mostly robotic) noninferior to open surgery for 90‑day overall complications and modestly faster functional recovery, with lower fistula and wound‑infection r
Four RCTs comparing robotic and laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication for GERD show equivalent patient outcomes but longer operative times and higher costs with robotics, questioning its routine use.
This review synthesizes evidence comparing postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) between robot-assisted surgery (RAS) and conventional laparoscopic surgery (CLS) in abdominal procedures, highlighting the pivotal role of ventilation d
