Current Barriers in Robotic Surgery Training for General Surgery Residents

Robert D. Shaw et al.

Summary: This study assessed the current barriers in robotic surgery training for general surgery residents. The survey results indicate that residents are dissatisfied with the lack of effective OR teaching, real clinical experience, and simulated experience in their training. The presence of dual consoles and first-assistants is favored, while attending experience and comfort negatively impact resident participation.

Expectations versus reality: trainee participation on the robotic console in academic surgery

Vivian L. Wang et al.

Summary: In robotic surgery, trainees expect more console participation time than they perceive, while faculty overestimates the level of trainee participation. There are differences in perception of console participation time among different trainees. Setting expectations and standardizing learning curves are crucial for robotic surgery training.

Readiness of Graduating General Surgery Residents to Perform Colorectal Procedures

Joceline V. Vu et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the preparedness of general surgery residents to perform colorectal procedures upon graduating residency, revealing that not all residents were deemed competent at the end of residency, especially for advanced colorectal procedures.

Advanced Robotic Surgery: Liver, Pancreas, and Esophagus - The State of the Art?

Pasquale Scognamiglio et al.

Summary: Recent trends have seen a rise in robotic-assisted operations in visceral surgery, including in the challenging fields of hepatic, pancreatic, and esophageal surgery. While the advantages of laparoscopic surgery over open surgery are also applicable to robotic surgery, the latter comes with additional benefits such as a 3D-view camera, wristed instruments, and ergonomic consoles. However, the use of robotic systems can lead to longer operating times and higher costs, and randomized controlled trials comparing robotic and laparoscopic approaches are still lacking. Further studies are needed to validate the promising results of robotic systems in advanced surgical procedures.
