Abstract
Background
This study aimed to describe robot-assisted vena cava reconstruction by summarising surgical strategies and perioperative outcomes.
Methods
A retrospective review was performed on all robotic surgeries involving dissection and repair of the inferior vena cava (IVC) at our institution. Patient characteristics, operative reports, and follow-up visits were analysed.
Results
Thirty-nine patients underwent robot assisted surgery of the vena cava from 2016 to 2023. The median postoperative hospital stay of all patients was 7 days, and the median estimated blood loss (EBL) was 550 mL. The median IVC clamping time was 23 min, and IVC wall invasion was pathologically identified in five cases. No patients had liver or kidney dysfunction at the last follow-up.
Conclusion
Our initial experiences demonstrate that it is safe and feasible for experienced surgeons to perform robot-assisted vena cava reconstruction in highly selected patients.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery provides a cross-disciplinary platform for presenting the latest developments in robotics and computer assisted technologies for medical applications. The journal publishes cutting-edge papers and expert reviews, complemented by commentaries, correspondence and conference highlights that stimulate discussion and exchange of ideas. Areas of interest include robotic surgery aids and systems, operative planning tools, medical imaging and visualisation, simulation and navigation, virtual reality, intuitive command and control systems, haptics and sensor technologies. In addition to research and surgical planning studies, the journal welcomes papers detailing clinical trials and applications of computer-assisted workflows and robotic systems in neurosurgery, urology, paediatric, orthopaedic, craniofacial, cardiovascular, thoraco-abdominal, musculoskeletal and visceral surgery. Articles providing critical analysis of clinical trials, assessment of the benefits and risks of the application of these technologies, commenting on ease of use, or addressing surgical education and training issues are also encouraged. The journal aims to foster a community that encompasses medical practitioners, researchers, and engineers and computer scientists developing robotic systems and computational tools in academic and commercial environments, with the intention of promoting and developing these exciting areas of medical technology.
