Although 8 years have passed since the introduction of the da Vinci SP robotic system, rTEP surgery using the SP robot has never been introduced due to technical barriers. Through this study, we would like to share the possibility of safe and feasible TEP by da Vinci SP robotic platform beyond the technical barriers. As far as we know, SP robotic TEP implemented in our institution is the first introduced case, and I think it will be good information for surgeons who are thinking about TEP using SP robot.

Background: Conventional right hepatectomy typically involves resection of the right hemiliver, often including partial removal of the caudate lobe. However, recent advancements, particularly in indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging, have allowed for more accurate identification of anatomical boundaries between liver segments. In this context, we present a refined technique for real anatomical right hepatectomy that preserves the caudate lobe, offering enhanced surgical precision and several distinct advantages over traditional methods.

The advantage of robot-assisted surgery (RAS) is its ability to perform fine surgical operations with higher-resolution images. RAS should be particularly beneficial for small children, but it requires a certain amount of working space. The da Vinci Surgical System instructions state that careful consideration of indications for robotic surgery in patients weighing ≤ 10 kg is required.

Spinal schwannomas are benign, slow-growing tumors originating from Schwann cells, constituting 25 to 30% of primary spinal neoplasms and most frequently arise from sensory nerve roots in the cervical or thoracic spine. 1 2 3 Although generally nonaggressive, their growth can result in significant neurological deficits due to compression of surrounding structures such as the spinal cord or nerve roots. 4 5 Patients commonly present with localized pain, muscle weakness, and sensory disturbances.

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.
