Surgical Complexity and Outcome During the Implementation Phase of a Robotic Colorectal Surgery Program—A Retrospective Cohort Study

BackgroundRobotic surgery holds particular promise for complex oncologic colorectal resections, as it can overcome many limitations of the laparoscopic approach. However, similar to the situation in laparoscopic surgery, appropriate case selection (simple vs. complex) with respect to the actual robo...
