[The virtual modeling of the robotic-assisted operations in abdominal surgery].

Abstract

The experience of single institution of 43 robotic-assisted operations in the abdomen and retroperitoneal space has been analyzed. The problem of port placement conditioned the preoperative computed 3D-modelling of the operative course. The procedure allowed to optimize the movements of the robotic manipulators, decrease the risk of organ injury and overall incidence of intra- an postoperative complications.
