Trans-umbilical Single-Site Plus One Robotic Assisted Surgery for Choledochal Cyst in Children, a Comparing to Laparoscope-Assisted Procedure

Abstract

A resection of the choledochal cyst and a Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy can be performed much more precisely by single-site plus one robotic-assisted surgery. Patients can achieve rapid recovery, and the umbilical incision is more concealed and beautiful. Combing the experience of single-site surgery with robot-assisted surgery, the operators can implement the technique in children safely and feasibly.
