Robotically performed @entity348 for XXXX .

@entity1 @entity5 @entity254 @entity292 @entity348
BACKGROUND: @entity5 is an important health problem, due to the increasing number of new cases and the quality of life issues brought forth by surgical treatment in these @entity1 . AIM: The aim of the study was to analyse the results of robotic surgery in the treatment of lower and middle @entity5 ,locations in which @entity348 is performed. MATERIAL AND METHOD: @entity1 diagnosed with and operated on for @entity5 by the means of robotic surgery between 2008-2012 at the Fundeni Clinical Institute were retrospectively analysed. RESULTS: A number of 117 @entity1 with @entity5 were operated on by robotic surgery, of which 79 (67.52%) were submitted to @entity348 ( @entity348 ). The most frequently performed surgery was low anterior resection, followed by rectal amputation through abdominoperineal approach. @entity254 @entity292 was observed in 9 (11.39%) @entity1 . Local recurrence was encountered in 2 (2.53%) of the robotically performed surgeries. CONCLUSIONS: 1. Robotically assisted @entity348 is feasible, safe and can be performed with a small number of complications and a low local recurrence rate; 2. The main advantages are oncological safety and quality of life; 3.Conversion to open surgery is rarely encountered; 4. Protection loop ileostomy existence allows avoiding reintervention in case anastomotic @entity292 occurs in @entity1 with low anterior resection. 5. Robotic surgery may become gold standard in the surgical treatment of @entity5 .
