“…The available studies on rectal resection of the present review with a mean number of 14.3 harvested lymph nodes did not demonstrate inferior results in these terms. The oncologic outcome of robot-assisted rectal resection is an interesting Undoubtedly, the application of robotics in urology, gynecology, general, vascular, and cardiac surgery has provided increased operative dexterity and enhanced competence [66][67][68][69][70]. Whereas intracorporeal colocolic or colorectal anastomosis is a difficult task using conventional laparoscopic techniques, robotics offer a significant advantage in these terms.…”

“…By these means, MSTUs may play a pivotal role in reducing the ischemic insult to the patient's brain, overall AIS morbidity and mortality, and societal cost for medical care, rehabilitation, and disability related to AIS. 3,16 After the idea for an MSTU was first proposed in Germany in 2003, the first MSTU became operational in Berlin in 2008. Data collected from early German MSTUs supported the feasibility of this mobile AIS treatment system and suggested MSTU deployment resulted in significantly decreased times to IV-tPA administration for the patient.…”

During the past 20 years, the traditional supportive treatment for stroke has been radically transformed by advances in catheter technologies and a cohort of prominent randomized controlled trials that unequivocally demonstrated significant improvement in stroke outcomes with timely endovascular intervention. However, substantial limitations to treatment remain, among the most important being timely access to care. Nonetheless, stroke care has continued its evolution by incorporating technological advances from various fields that can further reduce patients' morbidity and mortality. In this paper the authors discuss the importance of emerging technologies—mobile stroke treatment units, telemedicine, and robotically assisted angiography—as future tools for expanding access to the diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic stroke.

It is of great value to design and develop CoR (Catheter-operating Robot) that can substitute a physician to manipulate a catheter in robotic-assisted vascular surgery. In this paper, we designed a new two-fingered CoR to simulate the catheter manipulation by a surgeon with thumb and forefinger, where the rotation and twist motions of the robotic fingers can achieve the conventional push / pull and rotation operation of the catheter respectively, and the open/close motion can achieve the rapid replacement of the catheter or operator. With the novel 'parts reuse' design, as few parts as possible are employed to achieve the two-finger movement in the mechanism structure, which lays a foundation for the miniaturization of the CoR in future. This paper first introduces the design and development of the proposed CoR, and then develops a CoR prototype. The operation precision of the CoR is analyzed by a quantitative experiment, and then a vitro-experiment is carried out to evaluate the validity of CoR in the robot assisted VIS with a glass vascular model. The experimental results show that CoR has the advantages of flexible control and high positioning accuracy, which is convenient for catheter control.

Clinical applications of robotic technology in vascular and endovascular surgery

Abstract: Robotic technology may enhance vascular surgical techniques given preclinical evidence and early clinical reports. Further clinical studies are required to quantify its advantages over conventional treatments and define its role in vascular and endovascular surgery.
