Robotic Assisted Colorectal Surgery: Does BMI Affect Conversion Rate and Postoperative Complications?
Erin Worden, MD, Lala Hussain, MSc, Hamza Guend, MD. Good Samaritan HospitalBackground: Robotic-assisted surgery offers the advantages of instrumentation with added degrees of freedom, 3-dimensional surgeon controlled camera, and stable retraction. We hypothesize that such advantages may reduce the rate of conversion to open surgery in obese patients. The primary aim of our study was to… Continue Reading
