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

Summary

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.

Eligibility

2. Patients who have undergone a complete (R0) resection.
3. Patients with an ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) score of 3 or below.
4. Patients undergoing robotic radical distal gastrectomy.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients under 19 years of age.
2. Patients who have received preoperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
3. Patients diagnosed with stage IV gastric cancer due to distant metastasis.
4. Patients diagnosed with malignancies other than gastric cancer.
