Article Synopsis
- - This paper investigates if smart glasses or head-mounted displays enhance efficiency in surgical procedures without negatively affecting quality, while also exploring their potential in surgical education and consultation.
- - A systematic review of literature was conducted, analyzing 32 studies that measured procedural times and outcomes with and without the use of smart glasses.
- - Results showed that smart glasses can reduce procedural times without increasing adverse outcomes, but concerns such as cost, privacy, and user comfort must be considered; further trials are needed to fully assess their value in surgical settings.
Background: The centralisation of rectal cancer management to high-volume oncology centres has translated to improved oncological and survival outcomes. We hypothesise that individual surgeon caseload, specialisation, and experience may be as significant in determining oncologic and postoperative outcomes in rectal cancer surgery.
Methods: A prospectively maintained colorectal surgery database was reviewed for patients undergoing rectal cancer surgery between January 2004 and June 2020.
