Robot-assisted posterior retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy: single port access
نویسندگان
چکیده
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has become a gold standard in adrenal gland surgery. More recently, some minimally invasive trials have been conducted on single access surgery on the adrenal gland. In this study, we introduce our first experiences of robot-assisted posterior retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy using single-port access and the da Vinci system.

Single access retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy: initial experience
Today, endoscopic adrenalectomy has become a gold standard in endocrine surgery. To minimize the morbidity and improve cosmesis, single access retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (SARA) has been developed as an alternative to traditional multiport laparoscopy and single port access (SPA) surgery, potentially exploiting even more the already proven benefits of minimally invasive surgery. We appli...
متن کاملSingle-Port Robotic-Assisted Adrenalectomy: Feasibility, Safety, and Cost-Effectiveness
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The introduction of robotic surgery offers patients and surgeons new options for adrenalectomy. Whereas multiport adrenalectomies have been safely performed using the robot, we describe our experience with the novel technique of single-port robotic-assisted adrenalectomy. METHODS We performed a matched-cohort study comparing 16 single-port robotic-assisted adrenalect...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Adrenalectomy: Retroperitoneal Approach
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has become the gold standard for removal of benign adrenal masses. Despite initial concerns about safety, a long learning curve, and unfamiliarity of anatomy from the posterior approach, the posterior retroperitoneoscopic approach is now the preferred technique at many institutions, and offers several advantages over the transperitoneal approach, including direct acce...
متن کاملRobot-assisted laparoendoscopic single site adrenalectomy
Rationale: Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is currently the standard of care for adrenal lesion. Minimal invasive laparoscopic surgery such as laparoendoscopic single site surgery (LESS) and natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) have been developed to improve cosmetic outcomes and reduce postoperative pain. However, there are still some problems related to instruments and port limi...
متن کاملAn Update on Minimally Invasive Adrenalectomy
Adrenal tumors require careful clinical and biochemical evaluation with appropriate imaging to determine malignancy or functional status. Tumors that are suspicious or confirmed for malignancy or hormone-secreting require adrenalectomy. This review discusses adrenal gland anatomy, physiology, and pathology, indications for adrenalectomy, preoperative management, and an update on surgical approa...
