Background: Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is a complex operation with high perioperative morbidity and mortality, even in the highest volume centers. Since the development of the robotic platform, the number of reports on robotic-assisted pancreatic surgery has been on the rise. This article reviews the current state of completely robotic PD.
Materials And Methods: A systematic literature search was performed including studies published between January 2000 and July 2016 reporting PDs in which all procedural steps (dissection, resection and reconstruction) were performed robotically.
Results: Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria, including a total of 738 patients. Data regarding perioperative outcomes such as operative time, blood loss, mortality, morbidity, conversion and oncologic outcomes were analyzed. No major differences were observed in mortality, morbidity and oncologic parameters, between robotic and non-robotic approaches. However, operative time was longer in robotic PD, whereas the estimated blood loss was lower. The conversion rate to laparotomy was 6.5-7.8%.
Conclusions: Robotic PD is feasible and safe in high-volume institutions, where surgeons are experienced and medical staff are appropriately trained. Randomized controlled trials are required to further investigate outcomes of robotic PD. Additionally, cost analysis and data on long-term oncologic outcomes are needed to evaluate cost-effectiveness of the robotic approach in comparison with the open technique.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs), along with their pathogenic property in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), require comprehensive analyses and explanations. The study is established with the purpose to elucidate the potential molecular mechanism of circATP9A in NSCLC. CircATP9A and microRNA (miR)-582-3p were evaluated by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and ribosomal protein large P0 (RPLP0), cleaved caspase-3, cleaved Ki-67, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-associated proteins (N-cadherin and E-cadherin), and core proteins of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) pathway were by Western blot.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of laparoscopic sigmoid extraperitoneal colostomy combined with pelvic peritoneal closure in abdominoperineal resection for low rectal cancer.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 162 patients with low rectal cancer, who underwent laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection from January 2015 to January 2019 at the Affiliated Peace Hospital of Changzhi Medical College. Extraperitoneal stoma construction was performed in 98 patients (study group), while 64 patients (control group) underwent the procedure without suturing the pelvic peritoneum.

In recent times, innovative surgical robotics have emerged and gained widespread adoption. This study aimed to compare the perioperative outcomes associated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) using three different robotic surgical systems: da Vinci surgical system (DVSS), hinotori surgical robot system (HSRS), and Hugo robot-assisted surgery system (HRASS). Our study involved a retrospective analysis of clinical data from 149 individuals who received RARP from 2022 to 2024, utilizing the DVSS (n = 81), HSRS (n = 52), and HRASS (n = 16).

Introduction: The classic open ventral hernia repair provides excellent results in recurrences. However, wound complications are the Achilles heel for a good overall clinical outcome. Laparoscopic surgery is in general associated with less pain, better esthetic results, faster recovery, and lower incidence of wound complications.

Purpose: Pediatric-onset Crohn's disease (CD) presents with a more aggressive course than adults. Surgical treatment is still necessary in many patients. The laparoscopic technique for treating terminal ileal CD is deemed safe and feasible, with the advantage to perform an intra-corporeal anastomosis (ICA).
