[Role and place of the surgical complex "Da Vinci" in treatment for the right half of colon cancer].

Currently there are a large number of publications, in which the data demonstrate advantages of laparoscopy-assisted colectomy against open surgery. These advantages include: fewer complications in the postoperative wounds, reducing the intensity of pain in the postoperative period, a decrease in length of hospital stay, faster recovery of bowel function in the postoperative period as well as the best cosmetic effect. Also it is proved that when performing laparoscopic surgery it is possible to achieve the criteria of oncological radicalism. A number of clinical studies have reported similar rates of a 3-and 5-year survival rate between these two approaches, which makes laparoscopy-assisted colectomy an attractive alternative to traditional open surgery. Despite significant advances in laparoscopic treatment for colon cancer surgeons are still faced limitations inherent to traditional laparoscopic technique. Development and distribution of surgical instruments for a robotic complex in the middle of the 2000s made it possible to overcome limitations through the use of tools with multiple degrees of freedom and stable three-dimensional high-definition images. The use of robotic technologies in laparoscopic surgery has showed their safety and effective alternative to standard laparoscopic surgery.

[Comparative analysis of immediate results of surgery for colon cancer using laparoscopic and robot-assisted surgical interventions].

In recent decades there has been achieved significant progress in treatment for colorectal cancer. Minimally invasive surgery (including robot-assisted) is rapidly gaining widespread acceptance in treatment of this form of cancer. Today robotic surgery is a revolutionary technology that opens a new stage in the development of surgery of the 21st century. Currently in the world there have been performed more than 2 million surgical interventions of the colon using a robotic surgical complex Da Vinci. To date it was accumulated a large number of single-center studies comparing laparoscopic and robot-assisted interventions in cancer of various parts of the colon for short-term and long-term treatment outcomes, which showed their effectiveness and safety. Modern colorectal surgery could not be imagined without the latest technology, the use of which directly affects the quality of life of patients after surgery.

[100 ROBOTIC-ASSISTED OPERATIONS IN COLORECTAL CANCER (FIRST OUTCOMES)].

This article analyzed the immediate treatment results of 210 patients, underwent endovideosurgical operative treatment concerning colorectal cancer (106 laparoscopic and 104 robotic-assisted operations). According to the first results, there was no significant difference between two methods in such medical indices as the volume of intraoperative hemorrhage, terms of hospital stay and peristalsis recovery, the rate of conversion and complications in. early postoperative period, quantity of removed lymph nodes, quality of TME. The application of robotics allowed performance of precision work in conditions of limited space of the small pelvis.
