Successful robotic kidney transplantation for surgeons with no experience in minimally invasive surgery: a single institution experience. Int J Surg 2024; 110:1586-1594. [PMID: 38052024 PMCID: PMC10942182 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000000977] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Robotic kidney transplantation (RKT) is a novel and welcomed innovation yielding good surgical outcomes. However, data on the feasibility and safety of performing RKT by surgeons with a lack of prior minimally invasive surgery (MIS) experience are limited. The authors aimed to evaluate the surgical and functional results of RKT and present the learning curves (LC) of RKT by a single surgeon with no prior experience in MIS. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study of all RKT performed between November 2019 and April 2023 at Severance Hospital in Seoul, South Korea. The authors analyzed surgical and functional outcomes, as well as complication rates of RKT in comparison to open kidney transplantation (OKT). The authors evaluated LCs using the cumulative summation method to describe the number of cases associated with the competency of a single surgeon. RESULTS A total of 50 patients who underwent RKT and 104 patients who underwent OKT were included in this study. In RKT group, the median surgical console time was 193 min (interquartile range, 172-222) and the median vascular anastomoses time was 38 min (35-44). Total operation time was 323 min (290-371) and rewarming time was 62.5 min (56.0-70.0) in RKT group compared to 210 min (190-239) and 25 min (21-30), respectively, in OKT group. Despite extended surgical durations with a robotic technique, both groups had comparable intraoperative and postoperative outcomes, as well as renal function. Estimated blood loss and post-transplant hospital stays were significantly lower in RKT group than in OKT group. LC analysis of RKT by the single surgeon revealed that surgical competence was achieved after 15 cases. CONCLUSION Even if surgeons do not have prior experience with MIS, they can rapidly overcome the LC and safely perform RKT with adequate preparation and acquisition of basic robotic surgical techniques.

A systematic review on diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases by magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy and artificial intelligence. Therap Adv Gastroenterol 2023; 16:17562848231206991. [PMID: 37900007 PMCID: PMC10612444 DOI: 10.1177/17562848231206991] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy (MCCE) is a non-invasive, painless, comfortable, and safe equipment to diagnose gastrointestinal diseases (GID), partially overcoming the shortcomings of conventional endoscopy and wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE). With advancements in technology, the main technical parameters of MCCE have continuously been improved, and MCCE has become more intelligent. Objectives The aim of this systematic review was to summarize the research progress of MCCE and artificial intelligence (AI) in the diagnosis and treatment of GID. Data Sources and Methods We conducted a systematic search of PubMed and EMBASE for published studies on GID detection of MCCE, physical factors related to MCCE imaging quality, the application of AI in aiding MCCE, and its additional functions. We synergistically reviewed the included studies, extracted relevant data, and made comparisons. Results MCCE was confirmed to have the same performance as conventional gastroscopy and WCE in detecting common GID, while it lacks research in detecting early gastric cancer (EGC). The body position and cleanliness of the gastrointestinal tract are the main factors affecting imaging quality. The applications of AI in screening intestinal diseases have been comprehensive, while in the detection of common gastric diseases such as ulcers, it has been developed. MCCE can perform some additional functions, such as observations of drug behavior in the stomach and drug damage to the gastric mucosa. Furthermore, it can be improved to perform a biopsy. Conclusion This comprehensive review showed that the MCCE technology has made great progress, but studies on GID detection and treatment by MCCE are in the primary stage. Further studies are required to confirm the performance of MCCE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether neuromuscular block (NMB) affects Intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and cognition in Prostate cancer (PC) patients with Robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP) remains unclear. Here we aimed to compare the effects of deep and moderate NMB on the IAP, inflammation, and cognition. METHODS The Moderate neuromuscular block (MNMB) group (N = 44) and Deep neuromuscular block (DNMB) group (N = 47) were recruited. Intra-abdominal pressure was adjusted to meet RALRP requirements. The expression of pro-inflammatory factors was measured by ELISA. MMSE scores were recorded before the operation, 1 day and 1 week after the operation. RESULTS Significant decreases in IAP (p < 0.001) and IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-a, and S-100β (p ≤ 0.01) expressions were found in the DNMB group. The MMSE score in the DNMB group was higher than that in the MNMB group on day one (p = 0.046). The incidence of nausea and vomiting was lower in the DNMB group than that in the MNMB group (p = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS DNMB reduces IAP and inflammation and improves post-operative cognitive functions in PC patients with RALRP.

Abstract
Robot-assisted surgical systems (RASS) have revolutionised the management of many urological conditions over the last two decades with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) now being considered by many to be the preferred surgical approach. Intuitive Surgical has dominated the market during this time period with successive iterations of the da Vinci model. The expiration of patents has opened the RASS market and several new contenders have become available or are currently in development. This comprehensive narrative review aims to explore the merits of each robotic system as well as the evidence and barriers to their use. The newly developed RASS have increased the versality of robotic surgical systems to a wider range of settings through advancement in technology. The increased competition may result in an overall reduction in cost, broadening the accessibility of RASS. Learning curves and training remain a barrier to their use, but the situation appears to be improving through dedicated training programmes. Outcomes for RARP have been well investigated and tend to support improved early functional outcomes. Overall, the rapid developments in the field of robot-assisted surgery indicate the beginning of a promising new era to further enhance urological surgery.

Abstract
Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common malignant liver tumor in children. Although the development of treatment strategies with advances in chemotherapy has greatly improved the prognosis of HB, surgical resection and liver transplantation still play a vital role in the treatment of HB. In recent years, technological innovations have led to the development of new surgical approaches for HB. In this review, we describe the latest research on the surgical management of HB, including new imaging technologies, minimally invasive approaches, and the application of associating liver partition portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy. We also discuss the current role of liver transplantation, use of ante-situm or ex-situ liver resection with auto-transplantation, and management of metastatic HB.

Abstract
As an innovative minimally invasive surgical technology, robot-assisted surgery (RAS) has greatly improved the accuracy and safety of surgery through the advantages of three-dimensional magnification, tremor filtering, precision and flexibility, and has been carried out by an increasing number of surgeries. In recent years, robots have been gradually applied to children, bringing new ideas and challenges to pediatric surgeons. This review will describe the advantages and limitations of robotic surgery in children, summarize its application in pediatric surgery, and provide an outlook. It is believed that clinicians should actively carry out RAS under the premise of rigorously ensuring surgical indications and strive to improve the efficacy of surgical treatment for children.

Abstract
Sensing, communication, computation, and control technologies are facilitating smart healthcare to improve efficiency and effectiveness of medical treatment and care. This study focuses on the risk issues relevant with the adverse events where novel technical systems do not serve as expected. We discuss the unique challenges, define the scope of risk management in healthcare and review the state-of-art research on diverse topics under the framework widely used in risk management. Then, we present a systematic approach to identify the hazards to patients and other asset of interest in the perception, cyber communication, and execution of smart technologies and their operational contexts. We also investigate different methods for scenario, likelihood, and consequence analyses for specifying the risks of adverse events, and categorize the approaches of risk reduction, as the main strategy of treating risks of smart healthcare systems, into four groups of design, operation, organization, and legislation. At the last, the article proposes some research perspectives responding to the developing trend of smart healthcare.

Abstract
Background: Enhanced laparoscopic instruments are filling the gap between straight-stick laparoscopic equipment and robotic platforms. We sought to evaluate the performance and cost of the HandX™ device during mesh fixation and peritoneal flap closure of transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) inguinal hernia repairs. Methods: The video recordings of a consecutive series of TAPP surgeries using the articulated needle driver device were compared with a series of surgeries on the DaVinci robotic platform by a single surgeon. Two critical steps of the procedure were analyzed: mesh fixation and peritoneal closure. A cost analysis between the two platforms was completed. Results: We analyzed 27 cases using the new needle driver and 27 cases using the DaVinci Surgical Robotic system. To evaluate the learning curve (LC) with the HandX device, we created three groups (G1, G2, and G3). The two latter groups were combined and called after LC. Mean fixation time using the DaVinci system was 258.1 seconds (±100.4) compared with 391.5 (±95.9) using the articulating handheld laparoscopic needle driver after LC (P < .001). The average time for peritoneal closure was 418.6 (±192.1) seconds for DaVinci and 634.5 (±159.5) seconds for HandX (P < .001). When comparing the after-LC HandX cases and the DaVinci system stratified by side, there was no significant difference in peritoneal closure in the right side (520.1 seconds (84.3) with the HandX versus 444.2 seconds (229.7) using the DaVinci system (P = .353). When evaluating direct cost of the instruments, HandX cases had a lower cost (310 USD) when compared with the cost of using DaVinci (973 USD). Conclusions: The new smart articulating needle driver may be a cost-effective means of bringing some of the benefits of the robotic platform to laparoscopy.

Abstract
Background: Laparoscopy induces changes and detachment of mesothelial structure. Studies on the prevention of mesothelial cell detachment are rarely found. The Dayak tribe uses the Dayak onion (Eleutherine americana L. Merr) as a wound-healing agent due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. This study aimed to prove the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities of Dayak onions in preventing mesothelial cell damage after laparoscopy.
Materials and methods: Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were classified into five groups (n = 6 per group), namely: (a) control, (b) Mediclore, (c) Dayak onion, 30-, (d) 60-, and (e) 90 mg/kg body weight, respectively. The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) and total oxidant status in the peritoneal fluid were determined 24 hours after laparoscopy. Histopathological analysis of mesothelial cell numbers and the protein Zone Occludin-1 (ZO-1) expression in the peritoneum, small intestines, greater omentum, and liver were performed 7 days after the procedure. An in-silico study was conducted to analyze the anti-inflammatory effects of the components of Dayak onions.
Results: The in-silico study showed that one of the Dayak onion active compounds, eleutherine, had a potential anti-inflammatory effect and acted as a modulator of TGF-β. Following Dayak onion administration, the TGF- level, the number of mesothelial cell detachments, and ZO-1 expression were all significantly reduced (p<0.05), whereas the total oxidant status (TOS) level was not (p>0.05).
Conclusions: Our study showed that Dayak onion administration reduced TGF-β level, number of mesothelial cell detachment, and ZO-1 expression following laparoscopy.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study analyzed the changes in the number of surgeries and surgical patterns due to the adoption and diffusion of new medical technology while focusing on radical prostatectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical equipment status report data and the National Health Insurance claims data from 2007 to 2019 were used. A total of 62798 radical prostatectomies from 135 medical facilities were analyzed. Radical prostatectomy was classified into open radical prostatectomy (ORP), laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP), and robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) using the fee schedule codes. A linear mixed model was used to determine whether the adoption of a robotic surgical system had an effect on the number of surgeries and surgical patterns after adjusting for medical characteristics. RESULTS The number of radical prostatectomies performed in Korea increased from 1756 in 2007 to 8475 in 2019. During this period, the proportion of RARP in total surgery increased from 17.5% to 74.3%. The mean number of surgeries at medical facilities adopting the robotic surgical system was 128.3, which was higher compared to 18.5 cases in medical facilities that did not adopt it. The adoption of a robotic surgical system increased the number of radical prostatectomy surgeries by 12.1 cases and the RARP share by 47.2% in a linear mixed model. CONCLUSION The adoption and diffusion of robotic surgical systems in Korea increased the number of surgeries as well as the share of robotic surgery. It is necessary to manage a technology that is widely used in a state where its clinical effectiveness is uncertain.

Abstract
Background Recently, there have been various developments in medical service robots (MSRs). However, few studies have examined the perceptions of those who use it. The purpose of this study is to identify user perceptions of MSRs. Methods We conducted a survey of 320 patients, doctors, and nurses. The contents of the survey were organized as follows: external appearances, perceptions, expected utilization, possible safety accidents, and awareness of their responsibilities. Statistical analyses were performed using t-test, chi-square test, and analysis of variance. Results The most preferred appearance was the animal type, with a screen. The overall average score of positive questions was 3.64±0.98 of 5 points and that of negative questions was 3.24±0.99. Thus, the results revealed that the participants had positive perceptions of MSR. The overall average of all expected utilization was 4.05±0.84. The most expected utilization was to guide hospital facilities. The most worrisome accident was exposure to personal information. Moreover, participants thought that the overall responsibility of the robot user (hospital) was greater than that of the robot manufacturer in the case of safety accidents. Conclusion The perceptions of MSRs used in hospital wards were positive, and the overall expected utilization was high. It is necessary to recognize safety accidents for such robots, and sufficient attention is required when developing and manufacturing robots.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optoelectronic camera source and data interpolation serve as the foundation for navigational integrity in the robotic-assisted surgical platform. The objective of the current systematic review serves to provide a basis for the numerical disparity that exists when comparing the intrinsic accuracy of optoelectronic cameras: accuracy observed in the laboratory setting versus accuracy in the clinical operative environment. It is postulated that there exists a greater number of connections in the optoelectronic kinematic chain when analyzing the clinical operative environment to the laboratory setting. This increase in data interpolation, coupled with intraoperative workflow challenges, reduces the degree of accuracy based on surgical application and to that observed in controlled musculoskeletal kinematic laboratory investigations. METHODS Review of the PubMed and Cochrane Library research databases was performed. The exhaustive literature compilation obtained was then vetted to reduce redundancies and categorized into topics of intrinsic optoelectronic accuracy, registration accuracy, musculoskeletal kinematic platforms, and clinical operative platforms. RESULTS A total of 147 references make up the basis for the current analysis. Regardless of application, the common denominators affecting overall optoelectronic accuracy are intrinsic accuracy, registration accuracy, and application accuracy. Intrinsic accuracy of optoelectronic tracking equaled or was less than 0.1 mm of translation and 0.1° of rotation per fiducial. Controlled laboratory platforms reported 0.1 to 0.5 mm of translation and 0.1°-1.0° of rotation per array. There is a huge falloff in clinical applications: accuracy in robotic-assisted spinal surgery reported 1.5 to 6.0 mm of translation and 1.5° to 5.0° of rotation when comparing planned to final implant position. Total Joint Robotics and da Vinci urologic robotics computed accuracy, as predicted, lies between these two extremes-1.02 mm for da Vinci and 2 mm for MAKO. CONCLUSIONS Navigational integrity and maintenance of fidelity of optoelectronic data is the cornerstone of robotic-assisted spinal surgery. Transitioning from controlled laboratory to clinical operative environments requires an increased number of steps in the optoelectronic kinematic chain and error potential. Diligence in planning, fiducial positioning, system registration, and intraoperative workflow have the potential to improve accuracy and decrease disparity between planned and final implant position. The key determining factors limiting navigation resolution accuracy are highlighted by this Cochrane research analysis.

Abstract
Background Patients and physicians are increasingly utilizing online video sharing sites such as YouTube for obtaining and disseminating health-related information in multimedia format; however, due to its free, open-access platform, YouTube videos fall short in providing validated, up-to-date medical information, and may even convey unintended messages to patients who are seeking additional information on surgeries. We evaluated the relevance, reliability, and quality of YouTube videos on novel surgical techniques in thyroid surgery. Methods The top 50 indexed YouTube videos for the queries, "robotic thyroid surgery" and "transoral thyroid surgery", were assessed by two independent reviewers for video quality and reliability for patient understanding. Videos were scored using Global Quality Score (GQS), a scale for video quality, and DISCERN Scoring, a questionnaire for reliability and quality measures of information presented. Results The mean ± standard deviation (SD) duration of the videos (n=50) was 8.1±3.7 minutes. Total views were 261,440 and the mean ± SD time since upload was 3.6±2.6 years. The median and interquartile range of video power index (VPI) was 1.9 (0.5-3.7), GQS was 3.0 (2.0-4.0), and DISCERN score was 2.8 (2.3-3.2). Most videos were uploaded by physicians (75.8%) and the highest number of videos (63.6%) uploaded were from the United States (US). Videos with higher quality and reliability scores were uploaded by academic professionals, and included videos of physicians who described procedural information, perioperative instructions, and possible postoperative complications (P<0.05). Adequate medical information on the procedure and discussion of complications in YouTube videos were independent predictors of advanced educational quality and reliability. Conclusions Clinical information on new surgical techniques such as transoral and robotic thyroid surgeries in YouTube videos scored low on quality and reliability as a source of patient education. Physicians should provide supplemental educational material online and offline to aid patient understanding of novel procedures.

Abstract
Robotic surgical systems have evolved over time. The da Vinci Xi system was developed in 2014 and was expected to solve the shortcomings of the previous S system. Therefore, we conducted this study to compare these 2 systems and identify if the Xi system truly improves surgical outcomes.In this retrospective study, a total of 86 patients with unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma without central lymph node involvement underwent gasless transaxillary hemithyroidectomy using 2 robotic systems, the da Vinci S and Xi. Forty patients were in the da Vinci S group and 46 patients were in the da Vinci Xi group. All surgeries were performed by 1 surgeon (YWC). All surgery video files were analyzed to compare the duration of each surgical step.The total operation time was significantly shorter in the Xi group than in the S group (153.0 minutes vs 105.7 minutes, P < .01). Time for robot docking was shorter in the Xi group (19.8 minutes vs 10.6 minutes, P < .01), and all procedures performed in the console also required a shorter time in this group. The overall complication rate did not differ significantly (P = .464).The da Vinci Xi system made robotic thyroidectomy easier and faster without increasing the complication rate. It is a safe and valuable system for robotic thyroidectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common hepatic malignant tumour in children, accounting for approximately 50%-60% of primary hepatic malignant tumours in children, mostly in children under 3 years old. In Western countries, the incidence of hepatoblastoma is approximately 1-2/100000. Da Vinci surgical system is fast becoming a key instrument in microinvasive surgery. The past decade has seen the rapid development of robot-assisted laparoscopy, which expends many fields including the liver surgery. This paper discusses the significance and feasibility of robot-assisted gallbladder-preserving hepatectomy for treating S5 hepatoblastoma in children. The aim of this essay is to compare the safety and effectiveness of robotic surgery with conventional laparoscopic surgery, and explore the meaning of preservation of the gallbladder by sharing this case.
CASE SUMMARY A 3-year-old child with a liver mass in the 5th segment was treated using the Da Vinci surgical system, and the gallbladder was retained. The child was admitted to the hospital for 20 d for the discovery of the right hepatic lobe mass. Ultrasonography revealed a low echo mass, 46 mm × 26 mm × 58 mm in size, indicating hepatoblastoma in the right lobe, and enhanced computed tomography showed continuous enhancement of iso-low-density lesions with different sizes and nodules and unclear boundaries, without the dilation of the intrahepatic bile duct, no enlargement of the gallbladder, and uniform thickness of the wall. The diagnosis was “liver mass, hepatoblastoma”. It was decided to perform S5 liver tumour resection. During surgery, the tumour and gallbladder were isolated first, and the gallbladder could be completely separated from the tumour surface without obvious infiltration; therefore, the gallbladder was preserved. The cutting line was marked with an electric hook. The hepatic duodenal ligament was blocked with a urethral catheter using the Pringle method, and the tumour and part of the normal liver tissue were completely resected with an ultrasound knife along the incision. The hepatic portal interdiction time was approximately 25 min. An abdominal drainage tube was inserted. The auxiliary hole was connected to the lens, and the specimen was removed. The patient’s status was uneventful, and the operation time was 166 min. The robotic time was 115 min, and the bleeding amount was approximately 200 mL. In total, 300 mL of red blood cell suspension and 200 mL of plasma were injected. No serious complications occurred. Pathological findings confirmed fetal hepatoblastoma and R0 resection. A gallbladder contraction test was performed two weeks after surgery.
CONCLUSION Robot-assisted S5 hepatectomy with gallbladder preservation is safe and feasible for specific patients.
