Single Site Surgery

Minimally invasive surgery has changed the landscape of women’s surgical healthcare. Conventional and robotic laparoscopy are the preferred approach for many major minimally invasive gynecological procedures. However, the philosophy of minimally invasive surgery has been pushed to reduce the size and minimize the number of ports placed. Many conventional minimally invasive surgical procedures use 3–5 ports through multiple small incisions. Laparoscopic single site surgery tries to perform on that philosophy but has its limitations. Enters robotic surgery already a major force in minimally invasive surgery and now sets to remove the limitations of single site surgery. However it requires proper understanding of the instruments and the techniques for successful robotic single site surgery. It starts with patient selection. Knowing the instruments needed and the proper set up of those instruments. Then knowing how to use the instruments in operating and suturing and closing. And finish with special considerations.

Inverse Kinematics Problem

A crucial design challenge in minimally invasive surgical (MIS) robots is the provision of a fully decoupled four degrees-of-freedom (4-DOF) remote center-of-motion (RCM) for surgical instruments. In this paper, we present a new parallel manipulator that can generate a 4-DOF RCM over its end-effector and these four DOFs are fully decoupled, i.e., each of them can be independently controlled by one corresponding actuated joint. First, we revisit the remote center-of-motion for MIS robots and introduce a projective displacement representation for coping with this special kinematics. Next, we present the proposed new parallel manipulator structure and study its geometry and motion decouplebility. Accordingly, we solve the inverse kinematics problem by taking the advantage of motion decouplebility. Then, via the screw system approach, we carry out the Jacobian analysis for the manipulator, by which the singular configurations are identified. Finally, we analyze the reachable and collision-free workspaces of the proposed manipulator and conclude the feasibility of this manipulator for the application in minimally invasive surgery.

ObjectivesTo evaluate the current patterns of use of minimally invasive surgical procedures, including traditional, robotic-assisted, and single-port laparoscopy, by Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) members and to compare the results to those of our 2004 and 2007 surveys.MethodsThe Society of Gynecologic Oncology members were surveyed through an online or mailed-paper survey. Data were analyzed and compared with results of our prior surveys.ResultsFour hundred six (32%) of 1279 SGO members responded. Eighty-three percent of respondents (n = 337) performed traditional laparoscopic surgery (compared with 84% in 2004 and 91% in 2007). Ninety-seven percent of respondents performed robotic surgery (compared with 27% in 2007). When respondents were asked to indicate procedures that they performed with the robot but not with traditional laparoscopy, 75% indicated radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy for cervical cancer. Overall, 70% of respondents indicated that hysterectomy and staging for uterine cancer was the procedure they most commonly performed with a minimally invasive approach. Only 17% of respondents who performed minimally invasive surgery performed single-port laparoscopy, and only 5% of respondents indicated that single-port laparoscopy has an important or very important role in the field.ConclusionsSince our prior surveys, we found a significant increase in the overall use and indications for robotic surgery. Radical hysterectomy or trachelectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy for cervical cancer and total hysterectomy and staging for endometrial cancer were procedures found to be significantly more appropriate for the robotic platform in comparison to traditional laparoscopy. The indications for laparoscopy have expanded beyond endometrial cancer staging to include surgical management of early-stage cervical and ovarian cancers, but the use of single-port laparoscopy remains limited.

The single-port gasless laparoscopic surgical instrument is an international leading patented product in minimally invasive surgery. This paper first describes the composition and the usage of the shadowless retractor of the single-port gasless laparoscopy minimally invasive surgical instrument. Aim to meet the specific requirement arise in the minimally invasive surgery for the animal abdominal cavity, we first improve the existing shadowless lifting retractor. Then, this paper proposes and designs the double-light shadowless lifting retractor. The test has shown the designed double-light shadowless lifting retractor has satisfied the design requirement. The practical tests have been done and shown the viability and effectiveness of the proposed design approach.

Basic Set

The field of minimally invasive surgery has evolved rapidly since the first laparoscopic appendectomies and cholecystectomies were performed nearly 30 years ago.1 Minimally invasive approaches are now widely used for gastrointestinal resection, hernia repair, antireflux surgery, bariatric surgery, and solid-organ surgery, such as hepatic, pancreatic, adrenal, and renal resections. Although the techniques and equipment needed to access, expose, and dissect vary according to the type of operation and surgeon’s preference, a basic set of equipment is essential for any laparoscopic or robotic procedure: endoscope, camera, light source, signal processing unit, video monitor, insufflator and gas supply, trocars, and surgical instruments. Understanding how to use and troubleshoot this equipment is critical for any surgeon who performs minimally invasive surgery. We review the essentials of basic laparoscopic equipment, including the mechanics of normally functioning equipment and the various types of laparoscopic trocars and instruments. We also discuss robotic equipment and the fundamental differences from laparoscopy. Minilaparoscopy and single-site equipment are briefly explained. Additionally, we discuss potential technical difficulties that surgeons may encounter while performing minimally invasive procedures and provide suggestions for troubleshooting these problems.
