Objective: To compare the surgical outcomes between reduced-port robotic surgery (RPRS) using the Octo-Port channel and multiport robot-assisted laparoscopy for myomectomy.

Study Design: This prospective study compared and analyzed data from 15 consecutive women who underwent RPRS for myomectomy and 15 consecutive women who underwent multiport robot-assisted laparoscopy to treat symptomatic uterine myoma from January 2016 to June 2016. The patients were treated by two surgeons at two institutions.

Results: The two study groups did not differ demographically. The differences in surgical outcomes, such as docking time, console time, hospital stay, estimated blood loss, Hb change, myoma count, and weight, also did not differ between the two groups. On the contrary, the number of port site was only 2 in RPRS compared with 4-5 in multiport robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy.

Conclusion: RPRS for myomectomy seems technically feasible and safe, with short-term perioperative outcomes similar to those from multiport robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy.

Background: Transperitoneal approach to robot-assisted pyeloplasty (RAP) have been preferred in the last decades because of the use of multi-port robotic platforms. However, this approach is linked to notable issues, such as pneumoperitoneum and lateral decubitus position, which is associated with potential soft tissues injuries, and it is a time-consuming procedure. Single-port (SP) platform was introduced to potentially address these issues.

Division of Breast Surgery, Department of Surgery, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Asan Medical Center, 88, Olympic-ro 43-gil, Songpa-Gu, Seoul, 05505, Republic of Korea.

We investigated the safety and performance of the Da Vinci SP single-port robot (SP robot) in nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) with immediate reconstruction. Medical records of 60 women aged ≥ 19 years who had undergone SP robot-assisted unilateral or bilateral NSM with immediate reconstruction between October 2020 and August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Stage I (31, 47.

Uniportal video-assisted lung resection versus robotic-assisted lung resection, is there a difference?

J Thorac Dis

November 2024

Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Division of Thoracic and Esophageal Surgery, Allegheny General Hospital, Pittsburgh, PA, USA.

Background: There has been increasing adoption of robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) and uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (uVATS) for lung resection. We undertook a single-institution retrospective study, comparing these approaches.

Methods: An analysis was performed of patients who underwent lung resection by either uVATS or RATS.

Sleeve lobectomy has solidified its position as a preferred alternative to pneumonectomy due to its significant advantage in preserving lung function, whereas right lower lobe sleeve lobectomy remains relatively uncommon because of the higher technical challenge. With the development of minimally invasive technology and experience acquired over the years, robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) has shown progress and distinct advantages compared to the traditional thoracotomy and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) approach. Owing to its 3D vision, bendable wrist joints, and tremor filtration capabilities, this surgical technique exhibits great advantages in complex thoracic operations demanding for reconstructive procedures compared to traditional thoracoscopic surgery.

Purpose: To evaluate the predictors of delayed discharge for patients undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) at our Institution since the introduction of the single port (SP) robotic system.

Methods: We performed a retrospective review of our prospectively maintained database of patients undergoing RAPN from September 2020 to August 2024. Patients were categorized by the postoperative day of their discharge: POD1 (single overnight stay) or POD > 1 (more than one night stay).
