Case Report: Laparoscopic-assisted versus Robot-assisted Duhamel pull through for management of Hirschsprung’s disease (Takrouney MH Bothara VP, Sandlas G.

Abstract
It is axiomatic to note that since the 1990’s various laparoscopic procedures have become increasingly popular for Hirschsprung’s Disease (HD) in order to achieve better results and to reduce post-operative pain and morbidity.
Full exposure of dissection eld is the cornerstone for safe andaccurate dissection of A ganglionic segment especially in deep pelvic region. The application of minimal invasive approach aims to overcome these obstacles and to preserve neighbouring pelvic structures.
Robot Assisted surgery and its application especially in pediatric surgical procedures provides excellent results with meticulous and precise dissection in deep regions like pelvis and also provides better magnication and 3 Dimensional vision during operative procedures. To further explore the application of Robot Assisted surgery in children, we performed a comparison between Robotic and Laparoscopic Assistance for Duhamel’s Procedure.
