Robotic surgery is safe and effective for pediatric tumor resection in the abdomen and thorax. This approach offers precise dissection and good outcomes for children, especially in retroperitoneal cases.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Pediatric tumors in the abdominal or thoracic cavity require effective surgical management.
  • Robotic surgery offers potential advantages in precision and visualization for complex pediatric procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of robotic surgery for diagnosing and treating pediatric tumor masses.
  • To share single-center experience with the Da Vinci Si® surgical robot in pediatric abdominal and thoracic tumor resections.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study of pediatric patients (June 2014 - June 2023) undergoing robotic tumor resection.
  • Utilized the Da Vinci Si® surgical robot for masses in thoracic, abdominal, or retroperitoneal locations.
  • Analyzed surgical time, tumor size, pathology, intraoperative events, and hospital stay.

Main Results:

  • Nine pediatric patients (median age 14 years) underwent robotic resection of various tumor types.
  • Complete tumor excision was achieved in all cases with controlled intraoperative bleeding.
  • Average hospital stay was 4 days, with no recurrence at follow-up.

Conclusions:

  • Robotic surgery is a safe and effective option for pediatric mass resection, particularly for benign and retroperitoneal tumors.
  • The technology facilitates precise dissection, adhering to oncological principles.
  • Robotic surgery demonstrates significant benefits in pediatric surgical oncology for abdominal and thoracic masses.
