100 ROBOTIC-ASSISTED OPERATIONS IN COLORECTAL CANCER (FIRST OUTCOMES)

Abstract

This article analyzed the immediate treatment results of 210 patients, underwent endovideosurgical operative treatment concerning colorectal cancer (106 laparoscopic and 104 robotic-assisted operations). According to the first results, there was no significant difference between two methods in such medical indices as the volume of intraoperative hemorrhage, terms of hospital stay and peristalsis recovery, the rate of conversion and complications in. early postoperative period, quantity of removed lymph nodes, quality of TME. The application of robotics allowed performance of precision work in conditions of limited space of the small pelvis.
