In the researchers' words
The indication of laparoscopic surgery is mainly for early regional type hepatolithiasis. Open surgery is the traditional treatment method for heptolithiasis. Da Vinci surgical robot can overcome limitations of conventional laparoscopic surgery in terms of vision and instrumentation flexibility, making the minimally invasive treatment of complex hepatolithiasis possible. The study aimed to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of robot assist laparoscopic surgery for the treatment of complicated hepatolithiasis by contrast of open procedures.
