-
Robot-assisted liver resection resulted in significantly fewer postoperative complications compared with open surgery while achieving similar oncologic outcomes.
-
The robotic approach was linked to reduced blood loss, shorter ICU stays, and decreased overall hospital length of stay.
-
Major complication rates, measured by Clavien-Dindo classification, were notably lower with robotic surgery.
-
Benefits were most pronounced in major resections, where robotics further minimized blood loss and recovery time.
-
Resection quality remained equivalent between robotic and open procedures, with comparable resection rates.
