Commemorating 300 Robotic Surgery at Myongji Hospital, the 2nd Robot Surgery Symposium Results
Jul 01, 2024
Myeongji Hospital announced a clinical experience that the oral cavity approach operated through the inside of the mouth is effective to preserve functions such as swallowing and vocalization in head and neck cancer and thyroid cancer surgery.
This information was introduced by Professor Cho Ki-joo of otolaryngology and Professor Kim Companion of Surgery at the 2nd Robot Surgery Symposium hosted by the Korea Center for Robot Surgery at Myongji Hospital (Center Director Kim Hyun-hoe) on the 28th.
Professor Cho Ki-joo, who announced the oral cavity robotic surgery (TORS) for head and neck cancer, said "The cervical approach is commonly used and a mandibular incision or lip incision is required for tumor resection of the upper gastrointestinal tract (oral, oropharynx, nasopharynx, larynx) and in this case, the incidence of accompanying complications is high and can cause problems in function such as swallowing and vocalization after surgery."On the other hand, if the oral cavity approach is used, it is effective in lowering complications and preserving function."
Professor Kim Wan-chan said, "The oral cavity robotic surgery (TORT) of thyroid cancer has a short distance from the mouth to the thyroid gland, which is the incision site, so it recovers quickly with less pain, and there is no scarring after surgery.".
The symposium, held online and offline by Myongji Hospital to commemorate 300 cases of robotic surgery, was designed to share clinical experiences and the latest knowledge of the robotic surgery center, which has been developing since its opening last year.
In the first session 'Robotic Surgery for Urological Cancer', urology professor Kim Hyun-hoe introduced partial nephrectomy using robots on the subject of kidney cancer. Professor Kim Hyun-hoe said, `The treatment principle for local kidney cancer prioritizes partial nephrectomy to preserve the function of the kidney as much as possible.' In particular, since robotic surgery can maximize the effectiveness in complex surgery as well as bleeding and recovery periods and minimizing the incidence of complications, partial nephrectomy using robots is the standard of treatment.'
Professor Lee So-yeon of the Department of Urology who announced robotic surgery for prostate cancer said, `The incidence of prostate cancer is steadily increasing, but the treatment progress is good due to the development of surgical techniques such as robotic surgery, and the mortality rate is not high if appropriate treatment is received early""As prostate cancer customized images such as PSMA-PET develop, the surgical patient group changes, and the frequency of pelvic lymph node resection during robotic surgery is increasing, active surgical treatment is important" he said.
In the second session 'New Horizon of Robotics Surgery', clinical experience and know-how were shared in the 'Hernia Robot Surgery' performed at the Myongji Hospital Robot Surgery Center and 'Robot-assisted papillary and wheal-preserving mastectomy', which is considered one of the most difficult surgeries 'Head and neck cancer oral cavity robotic surgery' and thyroid cancer oral cavity surgery'.
Professor Park Jong-seop of Surgery said "Hernia, a disease in which the intestine escapes through a defect in the abdominal wall, was used for laparotomy in the past, but there were problems such as chronic pain, complications, and late recovery."Since then, laparoscopic surgery has been developed and some of these problems have been improved, and recently, through advanced robotic surgery, it has shown positive results in overall indicators related to chronic pain and quality of life", he introduced.
Professor Shin Hyuk-jae of Surgery said, "Robot-assisted nipple and wheal conservation mastectomy is a surgical method mainly applied to patients with multiple breast cancer, widespread intraepithelial cancer, BRCA1 and 2 mutations, and is applicable to most cases except breast cancer invading the breast skin, inflammatory breast cancer, and breast invading the nipple. It has the advantage of minimizing bleeding, complications, and hospitalization with delicate manipulation using a robotic surgical device."
Director of the Center Kim Hyun-hoe "Myeongji Hospital Robot Surgery Center has continued to grow quantitatively and qualitatively for a short period of one year since its opening""Based on the clinical experience and know-how shared through this symposium, we will use it as an opportunity to achieve medical development and make efforts to lead to better medical services for patients" he said.
