Results of video-assisted technologies in colorectal surgery

Abstract

Robot-assisted surgery is not advisable for colon diseases according to price-effectiveness ratio due to available laparoscopic approach. Preventive intestinal stoma in endoscopic low and ultra-low anterior rectal resection allows you to avoid clinically significant inconsistency of colorectal anastomosis. Laparoscopic procedure should be performed with Contour stitching-cutting device in low and ultra-low anterior rectal resection if there is technical complexity of one-stage rectum intersection below the tumor. Robot-assisted operations for rectal cancer have advantages due to three-dimensional imaging and better orientation, greater freedom of manipulation in confined spaces, and simplicity of lymphadenectomy.
