Abstract | ||||
Background: Colorectal cancer is the third cause of cancer deaths globally. In Egypt, Colorectal cancer is the 7th commonest cancer, about 3.47% of male cancers and 3% of female cancers. Robotic CRC surgery is a recent surgical option for benign and malignant disease. Robotic techniques have more benefits than laparoscopy especially in the pelvic surgeries. Aims: was to overview the benefits of robotic surgery use in the treatment of CRC like intra-operative feasibility, postoperative complications, duration of hospital stay, morbidity and mortality Methods: We have searched the literatures in PubMed, Google scholar, Egyptian bank of knowledge and science direct. Conclusion: Robotic approach seems to bypass most of the of laparoscopic surgery barriers through high-definition 3D vision, physiologic tremorfiltration, motions like human wrist of robotic instruments, control with stable camera, and better ergonomics. The accurate procedures provided by this new technology are in demand especially for a narrow space as pelvic surgery. | ||||
