Successful cholecystectomy during robotic gastrectomy

Abstract

Robotic cholecystectomies can safely and efficiently be combined with robotic gastric cancer surgery, yielding several benefits. Improving robotic technology and experience may allow surgeons to efficiently combine more complicated procedures.

Sequential robot-assisted radical right nephrectomy and cholecystectomy: a safe combined procedure

“…When both conditions are concomitant in a single patient, offering a single combined procedure for the two pathologies seems attractive. However, combined procedures are scarcely reported in the literature , probably due to technical difficulty. Joint radical nephrectomy and cholecystectomy have nonetheless been reported in a classical laparoscopic approach, where the two separate procedures were performed subsequently, repositioning the patient and the trocars for each of the two procedures .…”
