A number of different surgical techniques for the treatment of cancer of the esophagus and the esophagogastric junction have been proposed. Guidelines generally recommend a transthoracic approach for esophageal cancer, including Siewert type I tumors. In tumors of the proximal esophageal third, transthoracic esophagectomy may be extended to a three‐field approach, including resection of cervical lymph...
Background
While conventional laparoscopy is the gold standard for almost all bariatric procedures, robotic assistance holds promise for facilitating complex surgeries and improving clinical outcomes. Since the report of the first robotic‐assisted bariatric procedure in 1999, numerous publications, including those reporting comparative trials and meta‐analyses across bariatric procedures with a focus...
BackgroundSuper obese (SO) patients with a Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 50 kg/m2 still represent a real anesthesiological and surgical challenge. While the best procedure to perform in this population remains unclear, robotic technology has been proposed to accomplish Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB). The study aim is to report our experience of robotic RYGB for SO patients and to compare it with open and...
