Implementation Strategies and Ergonomic Factors in Robot-assisted Microsurgery.

Robot-assisted surgery represents a significant innovation in reconstructive microsurgery, providing enhanced precision and reduced surgeon fatigue. This study examines the integration of robotic assistance in a series of 85 consecutive robot-assisted microsurgical (RAMS) operations. It aims to evaluate changes in the integration of RAMS during the implementation phase in a single institution.

Robot-assisted microsurgery: a single-center experience of 100 cases.

The adoption of robot-assisted microsurgery (RAMS) is a cutting-edge advancement in the realm of microsurgery. The Symani Surgical System is CE approved and has recently gained FDA approval. It provides tremor elimination, motion scaling and improved ergonomics.

Hands-On Robotic Microsurgery: Robotic-Assisted Free Flap Reconstruction of the Upper Extremity.

: Robot-assisted microsurgery (RAMS) has been introduced into the field of plastic surgery in recent years. It potentially offers enhanced precision and control compared to traditional methods, which is crucial for complex microvascular tasks in free flap reconstructions. We aim to analyze our experiences with robotic-assisted microsurgery in the field of upper extremity free flap reconstruction.

Ergonomic Considerations in Robotic-assisted Microsurgery.

Objective: Microsurgery necessitates precision and skill, with conventional methods often leading to surgeon discomfort due to prolonged static postures. The introduction of robot-assisted microsurgery using the Symani surgical system and a three-dimensional exoscope aims to enhance surgical precision while mitigating these ergonomic issues.

Methods: This prospective, single-center clinical study involved 50 preclinical training sessions and 87 robot-assisted microsurgical procedures at the authors' institution, covering a wide array of interventions from free flap reconstructions to nerve and lymphatic surgeries.

Unveiling Recurrence Patterns: Analyzing Predictive Risk Factors for Breast Cancer Recurrence after Surgery.

Objectives: Breast cancer (BC) stands as the second-leading cause of female-specific cancer-related fatalities globally, necessitating comprehensive research to address its critical aspects. This study aimed to explore the time intervals between surgery and disease recurrence in BC patients and their survival utilizing various parametric and semi-parametric models.

Methods: After the examination of data collected from 2010 to 2021 at a BC Center in Tehran, Iran, 171 cases met the criteria for analysis out of 2246 datasets.
