Abstract
(en) [Colorectal surgery in the robotic era] The year 2015 has been marked by the initiation of robotic-assisted colorectal surgery at the Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc. Robotic surgery is a new surgical technology, which attempts to overcome the technical limitations of laparoscopic surgery. Contrary to the rectilinear and rigid instruments used in classical laparoscopy, the robot’s arms and instruments allow for intuitive movements that perfectly mimic those of the surgeon’s wrist and hand. Along with the 3D magnified vision of the operating field and filtering of physiological tremor, these features in addition to others are key to the precision and safety of minimally invasive surgery.
