Needle loss can be challenging even for expert surgeons and increases the operation time considerably. The present study focused on successful retrieval techniques for lost needles during laparoscopic and robot-assisted abdominal and pelvic surgeries by reviewing the reported cases in the literature. We aimed to identify information, such as time for needle loss, successful and failed attempts for needle-retrieval, imaging modalities to identify the lost needle, and using special instruments or techniques. The needle withdrawing from the surgical port is the most commonly reported time for needle loss; however, needle loss can occur during needle introduction and suturing. After losing a needle, the camera's first attempt at intra-operative exploration of the surgical field is usually unsuccessful. Nevertheless, the intra-operative X-ray is the most commonly used modality in locating the lost needle successfully. Data suggests that surgical instruments, including ports, are considerable locations for finding the lost needle, which makes port disassembly and visualization one of the principal aspects of needle-retrieval. Some studies report specific instruments for needle-retrieval, including magnets, micro-laparoscopes, semi-rigid hysteroscopes, and needle holders, which may be helpful in exceptional cases. Future studies should compare different methods for needle-retrieval in a considerable population.</p>","PeriodicalId":47616,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotic Surgery","volume":"19 1","pages":"329"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144512550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research endeavor aims to perform a comprehensive comparative analysis of the therapeutic efficacy and assess the clinical applicability and value of the Da Vinci robot-assisted surgical method in relation to the conventional laparoscopic surgical technique, particularly in the management of congenital choledochal cysts. A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving 117 pediatric patients diagnosed with congenital choledochal cysts, who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University between January 2019 and October 2024. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the surgical approach: the robot-assisted surgery group (RS group, n = 45) and the traditional laparoscopic surgery group (LS group, n = 72). Basic demographic and clinical data, perioperative parameters-including operation duration and intraoperative blood loss-and postoperative complications were systematically collected and statistically analyzed for both groups. The operating time in the robotic surgery (RS) group was 224.5 (203.3, 247.7) minutes, significantly longer than the 190.2 (170.5, 219.7) minutes recorded in the laparoscopic surgery (LS) group, with a statistically significant difference (P < 0.05). No conversions to open surgery occurred in either group. Intraoperative blood loss in the RS group was 11.5 (9.4, 13.4) ml, which was significantly less than the 19.8 (14.7, 26.6) ml observed in the LS group (P < 0.001). The postoperative drainage tube retention time was 4.5 (4, 6) days in the RS group compared to 5.8 (4, 7) days in the LS group, with a statistically significant difference (z = -3.285, P = 0.001). The postoperative hospital stay averaged 9 (7, 11) days for the RS group, while the LS group had an average of 11 (10, 13) days, also showing a statistically significant difference (z = -4.520, P < 0.001). During the follow-up period, complications were reported in 1 case [2.22% (1/45)] in the RS group, whereas 6 cases [8.33% (6/72)] were reported in the LS group. However, there was no statistically significant difference in complication rates between the two groups (P = 0.424). Robot-assisted treatment of congenital choledochal cysts is considered both safe and reliable. This technique minimizes the complexity of hepaticojejunal anastomosis and decreases the duration of the anastomosis. Furthermore, it provides several advantages, including reduced intraoperative blood loss, a low rate of postoperative complications, and a faster recovery period.</p>","PeriodicalId":47616,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotic Surgery","volume":"19 1","pages":"328"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12204871/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144508853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study developed and validated performance metrics for two dry-lab models-a proficiency-based progression (PBP)-based orange model for dissection, suturing, and knot-tying and a catheter-balloon model for vesicourethral anastomosis. An international expert group from the Young Academic Urologists Robotics and the European Robotic Urology Section utilized a Delphi-based consensus process to develop and refine procedural steps, errors, and critical errors for the two models. The orange model simulated dissection, suturing, and knot-tying, while the catheter-balloon model simulated vesicourethral anastomosis during radical prostatectomy. The Delphi rounds ensured > 80% agreement on steps and critical and non-critical errors for each task, refining the models' performance metrics to maximize their educational value.

For the orange model, the procedure was divided into three steps-dissection, suturing, and knot-tying-identifying nine, 13, and five non-critical errors, respectively, with three critical errors recognized. The catheter-balloon model included two steps-suturing and knot-tying-identifying 13 and five non-critical errors, respectively, with three critical errors recognized, including anastomosis leakage.

The objective of this study was to carry out a systematic evaluation of the impact of NeuroSAFE technology on perioperative safety and functional and oncological outcomes. In accordance with the PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive search of the PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted, with a cutoff date of April 2025. NeuroSAFE technology was comprehensively evaluated from the perspectives of oncology, functionality, and perioperative safety. This meta-analysis included 14 studies (2 randomized controlled trials, 12 non-randomized studies; sample size = 26,442), in which a total of 14,458 patients underwent NeuroSAFE robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and 11,984 patients underwent standard RARP. NeuroSAFE significantly reduced the rate of positive surgical margins (OR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87, p < 0.001) and the PSA persistence rate (OR: 0.52, 95% CI: 0.05-5.64, p < 0.05) while also reducing the 2-year biochemical recurrence rate (OR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.45-1.45).
