Simple Summary Surgery is the mainstay treatment for patients with rectal cancer. Open and
laparoscopic surgeries have been used for many years, but robot-assisted surgery has been …

Introduction Maximizing patients' quality of life (QoL) is a central goal in surgical oncology.
Currently, both laparoscopic and robotic surgery are viable options in rectal cancer (RC) …

Abstract Background and Objectives Robotic surgery for rectal cancer is gaining popularity,
but persuasive evidence on reducing surgical trauma is still lacking. This study compared …

Background Robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) potentially reduces workload and shortens the
surgical learning curve compared to conventional laparoscopy (CL). The present study …

Objective Robotic surgery (RS) has been increasingly used for the resection of rectal cancer,
and its advantages over laparoscopic surgery (LS) have been demonstrated. However, few …

Purpose Improved long-term survival after low anterior resection (LAR) for rectal cancer
highlights the importance of functional outcome. Urogenital and anorectal dysfunction is …

The use of robots has revolutionized healthcare, wherein further innovations have led to
improved precision and accuracy. Conceived in the late 1960s, robot-assisted surgeries …

Aims Numerous reports have addressed the feasibility and safety of robotic-assisted (RALF)
and conventional laparoscopic fundoplication (CLF). Long-term follow-up after direct …

Objectives Review and assess cost-effectiveness studies of robotic-assisted radical
prostatectomy (RARP) for localised prostate cancer compared with open radical …

This paper presents the development of a 6-DOF (Degrees of Freedom) parallel robot for
single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS). The concept of the robotic system is developed …
