By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on Oncology - Rectal Canc er is the subject of a report. According to news reporting out of Nanjing, Peopl e's Republic of China, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "Da Vinci Robotics-as sisted total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery for rectal cancer is becoming mor e widely used. There is no strong evidence that robotic-assisted surgery and lap aroscopic surgery have similar outcomes in elderly patients with TME for rectal cancer." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the Affiliated Hosp ital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, "To determine the improved oncol ogical outcomes and short-term efficacy of robot-assisted surgery in elderly pat ients undergoing TME surgery. A retrospective study of the clinical pathology an d follow-up of elderly patients who underwent TME surgery at the Department of G astrointestinal Oncology at the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chi nese Medicine was conducted from March 2020 through September 2023. The patients were divided into a robot-assisted group (the R-TME group) and a laparoscopic g roup (the L-TME group), and the short-term efficacy of the two groups was compar ed. There were 45 elderly patients ( 60 years) in the R-TME group and 50 elderly patients ( 60 years) in the L-TME group. There were no differences in demograph ics, conversion rates, or postoperative complication rates. The L-TME group had a longer surgical time than the R-TME group [145 (125, 187.5) 180 (148.75, 206.25) min, = 0.005), and the first postoperative meal time in th e L-TME group was longer than that in the R-TME (4 3 d, = 0.048). Among the sex and body mass index (BMI) subgroups, the R-TME group had better outcomes than di d the L-TME group in terms of operation time ( = 0.042) and intraoperative asses sment of bleeding ( = 0.042). In the high BMI group, catheter removal occurred e arlier in the R-TME group than in the L-TME group (3 4 d, = 0.001), and autonomo us voiding function was restored. The curative effect and short-term efficacy of robot-assisted TME surgery for elderly patients with rectal cancer are similar to those of laparoscopic TME surgery; however, robotic-assisted surgery has bett er short-term outcomes for individuals with risk factors such as obesity and pel vic stenosis."
