Various innovative robotic systems have been developed to improve surgery precision. The Senhance Surgical System (SSS) is a digital laparoscopic system offering eye tracking and haptic feedback. Several reports have described application of the SSS to general surgeries, including cholecystectomy and colectomy. However, use of the SSS for gastric tumor has not been reported. We experienced a case of laparoscopic local gastrectomy (LLG) for gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) with the SSS. A 74-year-old man diagnosed with GIST underwent LLG with the SSS. Operation, docking, and console times were 117, 11, and 59 minutes, respectively. No perioperative complications were encountered. This study is the first to report LLG for GIST with the SSS. LLG with the SSS was safe and feasible. The SSS can use reusable forceps and contribute to reducing medical costs. The development of instruments is also progressing, and various kinds of surgery are likely to be indicated.

Background: The Senhance digital laparoscopic system (Senhance) is a surgical robot approved for use in Japan after the da Vinci system. Our institution was the first to introduce this system, which has been used primarily for gastrointestinal surgery. Featuring tactile feedback, eye-movement-controlled camera operation, stereoscopic vision, and magnification, the short-term postoperative outcomes of the Senhance in abdominal surgery have been documented.

The Senhance robotic system (Asensus Surgical, Durham, NC, USA) is an innovative platform for minimally invasive surgery. It enables surgeons to perform precise and cost-effective procedures using reusable instruments and has advanced features such as haptic feedback and eye-tracking camera control. Herein, we present the first application of the "double bipolar method" (DBM) in a Senhance-assisted laparoscopic partial cystectomy utilizing 3 mm Maryland bipolar instruments.

As the global surgical robotic ecosystem diversifies, multi-platform surgery is becoming increasingly common. The natural question is whether these robots differ in performance and cost. We address this question and report the first systematic review comparing platforms.
