Bedside assistant models in robotic abdominal and pelvic surgery: a systematic review of operative efficiency, training exposure, and perioperative safety

Robotic surgery depends on effective bedside assistance, yet staffing models vary between physician and non-physician assistants. We systematically reviewed comparative evidence evaluating these models in robotic abdominal and pelvic surgery. A PRISMA compliant systematic review was performed. PubMed, Embase, Ovid MEDL...

Safety and Efficiency of Robotic Versus Laparoscopic Revisional Bariatric Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Background: Revisional bariatric surgery is increasingly performed due to weight regain, inadequate weight loss, or complications following primary bariatric procedures. These operations are technically challenging, and while laparoscopic surgery remains the standard approach, robotic platforms have gained adoption. Ho...

Single-Port Versus Multiport Robotic Colorectal Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

BACKGROUND Single-port (SP) robotic surgery has emerged as a reduced-access alternative to conventional multiport (MP) robotic colorectal surgery. However, its comparative perioperative benefits remain uncertain. This systematic review and meta-analysis compared outcomes between SP and MP robotic colorectal surgery....

Laparoscopic versus robotic surgery for colorectal cancer: an updated meta-analysis with comparison against published systematic reviews

The comparative effectiveness of robotic versus laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer remains debated. We performed an updated meta-analysis through June 2026, with cross-validation against published systematic reviews. PubMed was searched for comparative studies of laparoscopic versus robotic colorectal surgery....
