Introducing laparoscopic colorectal surgery is a challenge to the whole surgical team. It is usual for an assistant to hold the laparoscope and be responsible for the surgeon's view of the operative field and a lack of expertise in the assistant can add significant difficulties. The EndoAssist is a robotic device that replaces the human assistant and ensures steady visualisation of the operative field and a view which can be controlled by the surgeon. This study describes its use in the introduction of laparoscopic colorectal surgery to a unit.
The EndoAssist was employed for the introduction of laparoscopic colorectal surgery in a unit with previous experience of this device for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. It was used in a consecutive series of 77 laparoscopic colectomy operations.
The robotic device proved successful in the whole range of colorectal operations and a reliable assistant. No problems specific to the device were encountered.
The EndoAssist robot is a useful laparoscopic assistant and aided in the introduction of laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
引入腹腔镜结直肠手术对整个手术团队来说是一项挑战。通常由一名助手手持腹腔镜并负责为外科医生提供手术视野,而助手缺乏专业技能会增加显著困难。EndoAssist是一种机器人设备,可替代人工助手,确保手术视野稳定且外科医生能够控制视野。本研究描述了其在一个科室引入腹腔镜结直肠手术中的应用。
在一个此前有使用该设备进行腹腔镜胆囊切除术经验的科室,使用EndoAssist引入腹腔镜结直肠手术。该设备用于连续77例腹腔镜结肠切除术。
该机器人设备在所有结直肠手术中均证明是成功的,且是可靠的助手。未遇到该设备特有的问题。
EndoAssist机器人是一种有用的腹腔镜助手,有助于引入腹腔镜结直肠手术。
