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

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.
