Pediatric Robotic Surgery, experience and results of the first program in Mexico and
Latin America
Statement of the Problem
: There have been few reports on robotic general pediatric surgery. So far, the largest number of
publications has been in the area of robotic urology. There is evidence that robotic surgery in children is safe. If conventional
laparoscopy is used, the reconstruction procedures are very challenging, whereas robotic surgery overcomes its limitations and
offers important advantages in complex surgeries. For example, the choledochal cysts have a incidence in the Asian population
of 1 in 1000, about two thirds of cases reported in Japan. The surgical treatment is extirpation of the cyst with bilioenteric
anastomosis in Roux-en-Y. I will emphasize this pathology, because robotic surgery is an excellent treatment alternative. More
than 70 different surgical techniques have been published in children. There is a scarcity of publications in Latin America and
our program is pioneer. The purpose to present the applications, share our experience and spread the robotic surgery in pediatric
patients.
Methodology & Theoretical Orientation
: A prospective, observational and longitudinal study was conducted from March
2015 to April 2019, that involved all pediatric patients that was treated with robotic surgery. The parameters evaluated were 13.
I present the results of 256 procedures and 46 different robotic surgical techniques and in the discussion we compare our results
with publications on general pediatric robotic surgery.
Conclusion & Significance
: A enormous variety of surgeries can be safely performed, including complex surgeries:
hepatobiliary, thoracic and tumor areas. It is important to offer children the advantages and safety of robotic surgery, it has been
accepted slowly for children. It is possible to implement an effective program of pediatric robotic surgery in which multiple
procedures are performed and with similar results to hospital centers in developed countries. It is very important to promote
surgery of the future.
