AI Article Synopsis

  • The Hugo RAS and Versius are new types of robots used in surgery that have special features for moving around the patient.
  • These robots offer great flexibility and can work in different areas of the body, but need careful organization to keep everything running smoothly.
  • The article gives advice and tips on how assistants can help with these robots during surgery and shares what they think about using them.

Article Abstract

The Hugo RAS and Versius are new robotic systems with a multimodular configuration, requiring a dedicated positioning of units, arms and trocars. While promising flexibility and multiquadrant opportunities-with an enhanced range of motion-the presence of multiple units around the patient should be effectively managed by the assistant and requires a new background of tasks. The article represents a practical guide while providing an overview on assistants' perspectives.

Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital, Clinical Teaching Hospital of Medical School, Nanjing University, Yangzhou Key Laboratory of Basic and Clinical Transformation of Digestive and Metabolic Diseases, Yangzhou225001, China.

To investigate the short-term efficacy of robotic and laparoscopic surgery for treatment of mid-low rectal cancer. This was a retrospective cohort study of clinical data of patients with mid-low rectal cancer (caudad edge of tumor less than 10 cm from the anal verge) treated with laparoscopic or robotic radical surgery in the Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University from July 2019 to November 2021. Patients whose anus had not been completely preserved, with malignant obstruction or perforation, with poor anal function indicated by preoperative low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) scores, or with incomplete follow-up information were excluded.

Robotic dual-docking surgery for para-aortic lymphadenectomy in endometrial cancer: a prospective feasibility study.

Int J Clin Oncol

December 2024

Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Kagoshima University, 8-35-1 Sakuragaoka, Kagoshima, 890-8520, Japan.

Background: The standard for robotic para-aortic lymphadenectomy has not been fully established. Para-aortic lymphadenectomy performed by sharing the same ports with pelvic procedures, a procedure known as dual-docking surgery, can be performed using the latest robotic system. We prospectively examined the ability of standardized dual-docking robotic surgery in endometrial cancer patients.
