Description
Summary:Esophageal cancer is a prevalent disease in thoracic surgery, and surgery is currently the main treatment method. It can completely remove the tumor and improve the patient's quality of life. The da Vinci robot-assisted McKeown surgery for esophageal cancer has the advantages of less trauma, less pain, good results, faster postoperative recovery, and beautiful incisions. The da Vinci robotic system has a three-dimensional enlarged actual surgical field of view and can perform all-round operations. It has been gradually accepted to clearly observe the lesion and its relationship with surrounding tissues, nerves, and lymph nodes, safely remove the lesion, reduce nerve damage, and remove enough lymph nodes. This article will introduce the surgical experience of our center in detail.
