Comparison of Full Robotic Instrumentation and Assistant-Controlled Laparoscopic Instrumentation in Robotic Distal Gastrectomy

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Gastric Cancer

In brief

This pilot study aims to provide valuable insights into the optimal surgical approach for robotic distal gastrectomy. By comparing full robotic procedures with assistant-controlled techniques, the results may guide future practice, enhancing surgical efficiency, reducing costs, and improving patient outcomes.
