The Safety and Feasibility of Reduced Port Robotic Distal Gastrectomy Using Single-site for Surgical Treatment of Early Gastric Cancer

November 12, 2015 updated by: Yonsei University
Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancy worldwide. Surgical resection of the tumor is the only curative treatment for gastric cancer. However, surgical procedure accompanies postoperative pain and prolonged hospitalization. To lessen the surgical trauma and stress, minimally invasive surgery were introduced. Laparoscopic gastrectomy was accepted as safe and effective alternative to open gastrectomy. Furthermore, reduced port and single port laparoscopic gastrectomy are considered to minimize the surgical trauma during gastrectomy. However, limitations of laparoscopic approach using reduced port includes unergonomic posture of surgeon, physiologic tremor and collision of instruments. To overcome these limitations, robot surgery using novel single-site technology enabled surgeons to perform the surgical procedure reducing the number of trocar from three to one for insertion of scope and two robotic arms. Previously, successful application of single-site technology for cholecystectomy and hysterectomy were reported. The aim of this study is to validate the safety and feasibility of reduced port robotic distal gastrectomy using single-site technology for the surgical treatment of gastric cancer.
