| 8 | Robotic gastrectomy for gastric cancer显示文摘Robotic gastrectomy(RG)is increasingly performed,particularly in East Asia.With articulated devices,surgeons are able to perform every procedure more comfortably and meticulously,which makes RG ideal from the surgeon’s standpoint.However,it is still unclear whether it is a suitable treatment strategy from the patient’s viewpoint,due to the lack of solid evidence obtained from randomized controlled trials.The feasibility of RG has been demonstrated in many retrospective comparative studies,which showed similar trends,including relatively less estimated blood loss and longer operation time with RG than laparoscopic gastrectomy(LG),equivalent number of harvested lymph nodes and similar length of postoperative hospital stay between RG and LG.However,considering the higher medical expenses associated with RG,its superiority in terms of long-term survival outcomes will need to be confirmed for it to be accepted more widely. | Masanori Tokunaga Masahiro Watanabe Shizuki Sugita Akiko Tonouchi Akio Kaito Takahiro Kinoshita | 2018 | Journal of Cancer Metastasis and Treatment2018，4，1： | 0 |
