The economy of motion of the totally robotic gastric bypass: technique, learning curve, and outcomes of a fellowship-trained, robotic bariatric surgeon.

We present our technique for a totally robot-assisted laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Moreover, data are presented in relation to a single-surgeon experience with use of the robotic platform in bariatric surgery. We reviewed a single surgeon's console and room time from 2009 to 2013 for all robot-assisted Roux-en-Y gastric bypasses (RARYGBs).
