@#At present, the application of the
robot assisted surgery system in the surgical
treatment of
esophageal cancer is gradually emerging, and it is more and more widely used and recognized in the field of
surgery. According to the domestic and foreign
literatures, the robot has many advantages, and robotic assisted
esophageal cancer surgery has been proved to be safe and effective, and its short-term
efficacy is significantly better than
thoracotomy. Other studies have shown that in long-term follow-up, the effect is comparable to
video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. In this
paper, the author are systematically reviewed the development
history of the
robot assisted surgery system, the effect of robotic assisted
esophagectomy on
safety, surgical
method, short-term
efficacy and long-term
prognosis. The traditional open
surgery and thoracoscopic laparoscopic
esophagectomy has been carried on the detailed comparison to provide some advice and theoretical basis for
esophageal cancer surgery robot system.
