Overview

Retrospective cohort study compares robotic and laparoscopic techniques for proximal gastrectomy outcomes, suggesting faster recovery with robotics.

Key Points

  • This study aims to compare short-term outcomes and quality of life between robotic and laparoscopic approaches for double-flap technique in proximal gastrectomy.
  • Retrospective cohort study of 73 gastric cancer patients comparing 28 robotic DFT and 45 laparoscopic DFT surgeries.
  • Assessment of operative time, postoperative hospital stay, and inflammatory markers in both groups.
  • Quality of life measured using GERD-HRQL and tracking of weight loss at 3 months post-surgery.
  • RPG-DFT had a longer operative time (308.3 min vs. 204.5 min, p < 0.0001).
  • RPG-DFT resulted in a shorter postoperative hospital stay (6.21 days vs. 8.13 days, p < 0.0001).
  • Postoperative day 3 showed faster decline in inflammatory markers for RPG-DFT compared to LPG-DFT.
