Robotic versus Conventional Laparoscopic Surgery for Rectal Cancer: A Cost Analysis from A Single Institute in Korea

Abstract: Robot-assisted surgery is more expensive than laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer. Considering that robotic surgery can be applied more easily for low-lying cancers, the cost-effectiveness of robotic rectal cancer surgery should be assessed based on oncologic outcomes and functional results from future studies.

“…Second, this meta analysis did not analyze the cost between the two techniques due to insufficient data, it is no doubt that the cost in RG is higher than in LG (Eom et al, 2012). The cost in robotic surgery is significant higher than that of laparoscopic surgery for treating rectal cancer (Baek et al, 2012). Third, the follow-up time was relatively short, only one reported 5-years follow up.…”

“…Estudos recentes indicam que cerca de 50% das cirurgias passaram a usar robôs depois de apenas um ano da sua introdução nos hospitais (Nakib et al, 2013). O mesmo se observa no tratamento do câncer, o que reforça a necessidade de estudos a respeito da viabilidade econômica e da segurança dos pacientes (Baek et al, 2012).…”

“…Niezmiennie jednym z głównych argumentów przeciwko zastosowaniu robota w chirurgii onkologicznej pozostają wysokie koszty operacji robotowych. Pobyt w szpitalu pacjenta operowanego z zastosowaniem robota jest o 20-30% droższy niż pacjenta operowanego metodą laparoskopową [23][24][25]. Wynika to głównie z wysokiej ceny systemu da Vinci oraz kosztów jego eksploatacji.…”
