Outcomes of Pediatric Robotic Surgery at a Tertiary Children's Hospital

Starting soon

Conditions studied: Robotic Surgical Procedures

In brief

This is a single-center retrospective observational cohort study evaluating surgical and clinical outcomes in pediatric patients undergoing robotic surgery at a tertiary children's hospital. All consecutive patients younger than 18 years who underwent robotic-assisted procedures (digestive, urologic, gynecologic, or thoracic surgery) between January 2025 and December 2025 at Meyer Children's Hospital IRCCS will be included. The primary objective is to describe postoperative complications within 30 days. Secondary objectives include conversion to open surgery, reintervention and readmission rates, length of hospital stay, postoperative pain, recovery parameters, and recurrence of the underlying disease within 12 months. Data will be collected retrospectively from electronic medical records, operative registries, laboratory reports, and follow-up documentation up to 12 months after surgery.
