Case Report: Robot assisted laparoscopic Duhamel pull through (Gursev Sandlas, Vipul Bothara, Mohammad Takrouney, Harshal Wagh. Robot assisted laparoscopic Duhamel pull through, Journal of Pediatric Surgery case reports, Volume 60, 2020, 101572)
Abstract
Robot Assistance has a unique set of advantages like 3D view, depth perception, elimination of physiological tremors and enhanced degree of freedom in movements. These advantages in combination give a very precise dissection with minimal blood loss and greatly reduced chances of injury to surrounding vital structures especially during dissection in deep spaces like the pelvis. In view of these benefits we decided to utilize the system for a Duhamel pull through procedure in a case of Hirschsprung’s disease.
