“…With a proficiency of over 70 robotic hepatectomy for various indications, Giulianotti et al [ 29 ] from Chicago successfully performed the first right lobe RDH. Several other units, including those from Taiwan and Saudi Arabia have successfully replicated the results and safety of RDH since that first report[ 6 , 14 - 16 , 21 , 27 , 28 , 30 ].…”

“…As compared to the CLDH, RDH allows for a suture closure of hepatic duct stump following the donor operation. Obviating the need for clipping, this suture ligation provides an additional few millimeters of duct length on both the donor and graft sides; potentially reducing the probability of multiple bile ducts in the graft and biliary morbidity in the donor[ 15 , 16 , 30 ]. Integration of image guidance has aided crucial intraoperative steps like bile duct division.…”

“…Real-time fluoroscopic guidance using indocyanine green enhances precision and safety of bile duct division. Indocyanine green injection after temporary inflow control enhances visualization of ischemic line of demarcation, allowing for a precise dissection to minimize blood loss and ischemic parenchyma in the graft and donor[ 15 , 16 , 30 , 44 ].…”

“…All of these advantages converge to ensure that the learning curve for RDH is a fraction of the CLDH. A series from Taiwan proposed that the learning curve for RDH was 15 cases, which is just a third of what is required for CLDH[ 15 , 16 , 30 ]. More importantly, a prior knowledge of laparoscopic surgery was not an absolute prerequisite to initiate a RDH program.…”

“…The robotic platform along with its purported advantages has helped overcome many of the disadvantages inherent to conventional laparoscopic surgery[ 12 - 16 ]. These systems are now gaining traction and are replacing the conventional laparoscopic operation.…”

In living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) the safety of the live donor (LD) is of paramount importance. Despite all efforts, the morbidity rates approach 25%-40% with conventional open donor hepatectomy (DH) operations. However, most of these complications are related to the operative wound and despite increased self- esteem and satisfaction in various quality of life analyses on LD, the most common grievance is that of the scar. Performing safe and precise DH through a conventional laparoscopic approach is a formidable task with a precipitous learning curve for the whole team. Due to the ramifications the donor operation carries for the donor, the recipient, the transplant team and for the LDLT program in general, the development and acceptance of minimally invasive DH (MIDH) has been slow. The robotic surgical system overcomes the reduced visualization, restricted range of motion and physiological tremor associated with laparoscopic surgery and allows for a comparatively easier transition from technical feasibility to reproducibility. However, many questions especially with regards to standardization of surgical technique, comparison of outcomes, understanding of the learning curve, etc. remain unanswered. The aim of this review is to provide insights into the evolution of MIDH and highlight the current status of robotic DH, appreciating the existing challenges and its future role.

BackgroundRobotic transplant surgery has garnered worldwide attention since 2002. Discussions on this issue have led to more publications over the past decade. This study assessed global robotic organ transplantation studies using bibliometric analysis.MethodThe study sample was robotic technique use in organ transplantation publications from 2002 to 2021 in the Web of Science database. We analysed top‐cited authors, countries, institutions, journals, and keywords. Citations were used to visualise and analyse target literature in VOSviewer.Results160 articles were included in the bibliometric study. Among the nations that are presently involved in the use of robotics in organ transplantation research, the United States of America leads robotic organ transplantation studies. The American Journal of Transplantation published the most articles overall.ConclusionBased on publication and citation numbers, robotic organ transplantation techniques are becoming more global attention. This robotic abdominal organ transplant surgery bibliometric analysis review covers research output and hotspots.
