Popis: Background The oncological outcome of patients with rectal cancer has improved considerably over the past few decades. This is mainly due to the introduction of the surgical concept of total mesorectal excision (TME) and the implementation of multimodal treatment strategies. Additionally, it has recently been demonstrated that the oncological results of open and laparoscopic TME are comparable. For some time there has been an ongoing debate on the potential relevance of robotic assistance systems in visceral surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the operative and perioperative outcomes of patients with rectal or rectosigmoid cancer, who were operated on using the Da Vinci Surgical System. Patients and results We retrospectively analysed the outcomes of 202 consecutive patients, who were operated between September 2010 and November 2015 in three Surgical Centers. The cohort consisted of 136 men and 66 women with a mean BMI of 28. We performed the following procedures: 49 anterior rectal resections, 119 low anterior rectal resections, and 34 abdominoperineal excisions. Conversion to an open procedure was required in 13 patients. Non-surgical complications (n = 27) occurred in 24 patients (12%) and surgical complications (n = 67) in 62 patients (31%). Most complications were due to abdominal or sacral wound infections (n = 25) and anastomotic leaks (n = 18). The mortality rate within 30 days was 2%. The rate of R0 resections was 95%, with circumferential resection margins being negative in 98% of the patients. The quality of the mesorectal resection was scored as good in 91% of the patients. Conclusions The Da Vinci Surgical System can be used safely and with a low complication rate for surgical treatment of rectal cancer. While primary evidence suggests that the outcome of robotic-assisted surgery is comparable with open and laparoscopic surgery, its definitive value has to be determined upon publication of the prospective randomized ROLARR trial. The main advantages of the Da Vinci system are its endowristed instruments with multiple degrees of freedom and its optimised visualisation (3D, stable camera platform controlled by the surgeon). Another positive feature is the significant ergonomic advantage for the surgeon.
