Sumario: | Robotic esophageal surgery is becoming more widely adopted. Several publications on the feasibility, short-term outcomes and technical aspects are available. Most of these articles used either the da Vinci® SI system or in newer series the Xi System. The da Vinci® X system is generally considered less suited for multiquadrant access like in esophageal surgery, hence only limited data is available. Here we describe our initial experience with 16 Ivor-Lewis robotic assisted minimally invasive esophagectomies (RAMIE) in patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma. The da Vinci® X system was installed in our department in 2019; the robotic program comprises colorectal, pancreatic and esophageal surgery. The first two patients were operated in the presence of a proctor. An operative standard was established including fluorescence angiography (Firefly®). Technical aspects with focus on the characteristics of the da Vinci® X system, operating room setup, and short-term outcomes are discussed. |
