Background and Objective Robot-assisted surgery has been progressively involved in various fields of adult and pediatric surgery, demonstrating many advantages over either mini-invasive or open surgery. The aim of this review is to provide the most recent evidence on robot-assisted pediatric surgery, in all its subspecialties. Methods A comprehensive electronic literature search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library was conducted using appropriate Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms and keywords. The interval time considered was a 5-year period [2017–2022], and no language restrictions were applied. Key Content and Findings A total of 685 titles were identified. After applying exclusion criteria, 73 articles for robotic pediatric surgery have been published and were included in this review. We extrapolated and summarized the current evidence on robot-assisted surgery in pediatric age through all the fields of applicability. Conclusions Robot-assisted surgery is technically feasible in case of a selected pediatric cohort, and it is going to achieve similar or better surgical results if related to the standard open or mini-invasive procedures. Copious case series and randomized trials are still required. Due to the great potential that this new technology is demonstrating, in the close future, the evolution of robotic platform will offer a valid and solid alternative in the treatment of various pediatric pathologies.

“…The mean operation time was longer for the laparoscopic method but the patients had a shorter time to oral intake [ 10 , 11 ]. Minimally invasive repair with the use of robotic surgery has been proposed as a feasible and safe alternative [ 12 ] but it has not yet gained popularity among pediatric surgeons.…”

A defect of the esophageal hiatus can lead to herniation of the stomach or other abdominal organs into the thoracic cavity, a condition called hiatal hernia. They constitute a rare clinical entity during infancy and childhood and their symptoms can be non-specific or subtle, making the diagnosis difficult even for experienced clinicians. In all cases, surgical treatment of the defect is necessary because of life-threatening complications.We present a rare case of a newborn with congenital paraesophageal hernia (CPEH) and microgastria, who was initially referred to our center with the diagnosis of esophageal atresia due to the inability to pass an orogastric tube beyond 15 cm from the gum margin. A contrast study revealed the CPEH. The patient underwent emergent surgery and has had no signs of recurrence until now.Although the diagnosis can be very tricky and mimic other conditions, a high level of suspicion should exist especially in patients with persistent symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux or recurrent respiratory infections. In neonates, signs and symptoms can be indicative of esophageal obstruction which should be ruled out with an upper gastrointestinal (GI) study.
