Red Net Moment Hengyang March 4 news (correspondent Peng Su Cai Bin reporter Tan Qian) on March 3, the Second Affiliated Hospital of the University of South China Gastrointestinal Surgery successfully carried out the first case of da Vinci robot rectal cancer radical surgery. The smooth development of the operation is a major progress of the gastrointestinal surgery team of the hospital to keep up with the current frontier of minimally invasive surgery and move minimally invasive surgery into the robot era.
The patient, a 36-year-old female patient, developed intermittent periumbilical pain one year ago, which was not taken seriously and was treated promptly. A month ago, he developed blood in the stool, suspected rectal cancer after examination at the local hospital on February 15, and was transferred to the Second Affiliated Hospital of the University of South China for hospitalization on February 24. Transintestinal pathology, abdominal CT, MRI and other perfect examinations suggest rectal cancer. In full consideration of the patient's demand for precise treatment of surgical diseases and minimally invasive treatment, the gastrointestinal surgery team of the Second Affiliated Hospital of the University of South China, led by Director Shan Hanguo, with the participation of deputy chief physicians Huang Diming, Dr. Peng Su and other expert teams, carried out the first da Vinci robot surgery in the department.
After careful preparation in the early stage, the operation officially began after completing the surgical anesthesia, adjusting the position, debugging and connecting the equipment, and establishing the surgical system. During the procedure, the Da Vinci robot fully demonstrated the advantages of traditional laparoscopic surgery. Robotic surgical instruments can filter out the natural flutter of the human hand to achieve precise operation of surgery and minimize bleeding and peripheral tissue damage, up to 10 times magnification of high-resolution three-dimensional image system can better protect and reduce the lower abdominal plexus and pelvic plexus nerve damage, as far as possible to reduce the patient's postoperative bladder urination dysfunction and sexual dysfunction.
With the close cooperation of the anesthesiology department and the operating room, the team successfully performed the "Da Vinci" robotic rectal cancer radical resection for the patient. The operation takes a short time, the surgical field is clearer, the bleeding is less, the lymph nodes in the lesion area are scanned thoroughly, and the patient wakes up smoothly after surgery.
It is reported that the latest generation of Da Vinci XI surgical robot introduced by the Second Affiliated Hospital of the University of South China combines the flexibility of the human hand and the minimally invasive advantages of the laparoscopic system, breaking through the limitations of human operation and completing more delicate operations in a small space. The robot arm has 7 degrees of freedom and can be rotated 540 degrees, so that some actions that were originally difficult to complete under the laparoscopic system due to the "long chopstick effect" can be completed relatively easily; the robot not only breaks through the limitations of the human eye, liberates the doctor's hands, but also greatly reduces the degree of trauma of the patient, greatly reduces the occurrence of complications such as bleeding and pain, improves the quality of life of patients after surgery, and is a major trend in the future development of surgery.
