Aim: Robotic surgery is intended to improve surgical outcomes overcoming the inherent limitations of conventional laparoscopy by simplifying the most complex procedures such as the intracorporeal fashioning of an anastomosis. Several studies suggest that the intracorporeal confectioning of an anastomosis after a laparoscopic right colectomy may offer several advantages. The authors report a retrospective study comparing robotic right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis (RRC-IA) versus laparoscopic right colectomy with extracorporeal anastomosis (LRC-EA) Methods: A retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database of our institution was performed on the data on patients undergoing RRC-IA or LRC-EA for Crohn’s disease, adenomas or cancer between September 2013 and August 2017. One hundred and sixty-eight patients (RRC-IA=70, LRC-EA=98) met the inclusion criteria for eligibility in the study. Perioperative and short-term outcomes have been assessed. Results: A statistically significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of mean operative time and postoperative outcomes. Compared with the LRC-EA, the RRC-IA required a longer operative time but had better postoperative outcomes, such as a shorter time to first flatus and oral feeding recovery. No significant differences were found in the length of hospital stay, 30-day morbidity, mortality and number of lymph nodes harvested. Conclusion: The RRC-IA seems to offer slight advantages over LRC-EA in term of postoperative outcomes even if it still requests increased operative time and costs. Greater experience with the robotic technique may allow these advantages to counter some of the cost-related concerns that have deterred the more widespread utilization of robotic technology for colectomy.
Scopo: La chirurgia robotica ha lo scopo di migliorare i risultati chirurgici superando i limiti intrinseci della laparoscopia convenzionale, semplificando le procedure più complesse come il confezionamento intracorporeo dell’anastomosi. Diversi studi suggeriscono che la realizzazione dell’anastomosi intracorporea dopo una colectomia destra possa offrire diversi vantaggi. Gli autori riportano uno studio retrospettivo nel quale vengono confrontati i risultati della colectomia destra robotica con anastomosi intracorporea (RRC-IA) rispetto a quella laparoscopica con anastomosi extracorporea (LRC-EA). Metodi: Una revisione retrospettiva del database prospetticamente mantenuto nella nostra istituzione è stata eseguita estrapolando i dati relativi ai pazienti sottoposti a RRC-IA e LRC-EA per malattia di Crohn, adenoma o neoplasia nel periodo compreso tra Settembre 2013 ed Agosto 2017. Centosessantotto pazienti (RRC-IA = 70, LRC-EA = 98) hanno soddisfatto i criteri di inclusione per l'ammissibilità nello studio. Sono stati valutati i risultati perioperatori e postoperatori a breve termine riportati nei due gruppi di studio. Risultati: Il gruppo RRC-IA, a fronte di un tempo operatorio superiore, ha mostrato una più breve ripresa della funzione alvica e dell’alimentazione. Non sono state riscontrate differenze significative nella durata della degenza ospedaliera, morbilità a 30 giorni, mortalità e numero di linfonodi asportati. Conclusione: La RRC-IA sembra offrire lievi vantaggi rispetto alla LRC-EA in termini di risultati postoperatori, anche se necessita di maggiori tempi operatori e costi. Una maggiore esperienza con la tecnica robotica potrebbe consentire a questi vantaggi clinici di bilanciare alcune delle preoccupazioni legate agli elevati costi che hanno scoraggiato la diffusione della tecnologia robotica per l’esecuzione della colectomia.
