Robotic Liver Resection: Initial Experience With Three-Arm Robotic and Single-Port Robotic Technique

Abstract

Robotic liver surgery was found to offer advantages not inherent in conventional laparoscopic liver resection.

Safety and oncologic outcomes of robotic liver resections: A systematic review

“…In case of overlapping populations, the most recent or most informative studies were included in the systematic review (Supplemental Table S2). From the 803 records retrieved, 31 studies were finally deemed eligible, incorporating a total of 1148 patients. The majority of studies were from Europe (14/31), followed by Asia (10/31) and the USA (7/31).…”

Reasons for open conversion in robotic liver surgery: A systematic review with pooled analysis of more than 1000 patients

“…Finally, 29 articles were included and are presented in Table . The four conversions on 70 patients reported as “Giulianotti et al” were part of our series and detailed as “present series” at the end of the table.…”

Selecting incision-dominant cases for robotic liver resection: towards outpatient hepatectomy with rapid recovery

“…Robotic MIS hepatectomy as a field is moving past its infancy. Nota et al (12) recently reported a collected series analysis of the 12 best studies up to 2015 (7,8,(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22). There is no doubt that hemi-hepatectomies can be performed with safety by the robotically-assisted approach (7,8).…”
