Summary: The study aimed to estimate the potential impact of robotic surgery on patients with rectal cancer compared to laparoscopic surgery. Results showed a potential 6.1% reduction in conversion rate if all procedures were done robotically, with no significant differences in other post-operative variables.

Summary: The study showed that robotic rectal cancer surgery had better short-term outcomes compared to laparoscopic surgery, with lower overall complications rate and shorter length of stay. Robotic surgery was found to be the most protective factor for reducing complications and was the only independent protective factor for prolonged length of stay.

Summary: Comparing the short-term outcomes of robotic-assisted laparoscopic lateral lymph node dissection (RALLD) and laparoscopic lateral lymph node dissection (LLLD), this study found that while the operative time was longer in the RALLD group, the postoperative hospital stay was shorter and the rate of anastomotic leakage was lower. These results suggest that RALLD may be a feasible and useful modality for lower rectal cancer.

Summary: This study compared robotic-assisted total mesorectal excision (R-TME) with traditional laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (L-TME) in patients with difficult anatomical conditions. The results showed that R-TME can reduce the diverting ileostomy rate and relieve postoperative pain without a longer procedure time but at a higher cost. The 2-year oncologic outcomes were similar between the two groups.

Summary: This meta-analysis compared the safety and efficacy of robotic and laparoscopic surgery in mid-low rectal cancer. The results showed that compared to laparoscopic surgery, robotic surgery had superior outcomes in terms of estimated blood loss, number of lymph nodes dissected, time to first flatus, time to first fluid diet, hospital stay, conversion, and urinary retention, although it required more operation time.

Summary: This study describes the technical details of robotic and laparoscopic salvage lateral pelvic node dissection (LPND) and evaluates the short-term outcomes in patients with recurrent LPNs. The results show that both robotic and laparoscopic salvage LPND are safe and feasible with favorable surgical outcomes. However, the surgical approach should be carefully chosen in patients with large-sized and invasive recurrent LPNs.

Summary: This study evaluated the perioperative, genitourinary functional, and mid-term oncological outcomes of laparoscopic and robotic-assisted lateral lymph node dissection for patients with advanced lower rectal cancer. The results showed that the robotic-assisted surgery group had better perioperative outcomes, genitourinary function recovery, and similar mid-term oncological outcomes compared to the laparoscopic surgery group.

Summary: This study found that distant metastasis was more common than locoregional recurrence after laparoscopic resection of rectal cancer, and there were different clinicopathological factors associated with locoregional recurrence and distant metastasis. Involved circumferential resection margin and suboptimal lymph node yield were adverse surgery-related factors of tumor recurrence that should be paid more attention to during the operation.

Summary: Surgical resection is crucial for curative treatment of rectal cancer, and robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) shows potential benefits in terms of functional outcomes without compromising oncological results.

Summary: Robotic-assisted surgery has several advantages over laparoscopic surgery in patients undergoing curative surgery for rectal cancer, including shorter operative time, significantly lower conversion to open surgery, shorter duration of hospital stay, lower risk of urinary retention, and improved survival to hospital discharge or 30-day overall survival rate.

Summary: Right-sided colonic diverticulitis (RCD) and left-sided colonic diverticulitis (LCD) have distinct clinical characteristics and recurrence patterns. RCD is less severe and has a lower recurrence rate than LCD, suggesting conservative treatment is sufficient. Complicated diverticulitis and percutaneous drainage are predictors for RCD recurrence.

Summary: This study compared the oncologic outcomes between nonradical management and total mesorectal excision in good responders after chemoradiotherapy. The nonradical management group had a higher locoregional failure rate compared to the total mesorectal excision group, but there was no difference in overall survival and disease-free survival rates between the two groups.
