Innovations in surgery for gallbladder cancer: A review of robotic surgery as a feasible and safe option
Keywords: gallbladder cancer, outcomes, robotic surgery, Oncologic extended resection
Abstract
Background: This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of robotic-assisted surgical techniques in the treatment of gallbladder cancer, comparing it with traditional open and laparoscopic methods. Methods: A systematic review of the literature searched for comparative analyses of patient outcomes following robotic, open, and laparoscopic surgeries, focusing on oncological results and perioperative benefits. Results: Five total studies published between 2019 and 2023 were identified. Findings indicate that roboticassisted surgery for gallbladder cancer is as effective as traditional methods in terms of oncological outcomes, with potential advantages in precision and perioperative recovery. Conclusions: Robotic surgery offers a viable and potentially advantageous alternative for gallbladder cancer treatment, warranting further research to confirm its benefits and establish comprehensive surgical guidelines.
