The first multimedia medical text of its kind―presenting the most comprehensive and up-to-date full-color material about robotics in General Surgery.

The Foundation and Art of Robotic Surgery facilitates the learning of surgery while applying robotic technology in multiple anatomical locations, using a comprehensive, concise and practical description of each standardized surgical procedure. The book provides clear descriptions of the instrument requirements, indications and relative contraindications to the robotic approach, preoperative phases including trocar placement, patient positioning, OR set-up, and a detailed description of the operative steps.

Each operation is divided into steps with specific timeframes, for learning and teaching purposes. Readers will learn how to use robots to make smaller incisions, decrease blood loss and postoperative pain, as well as foster quicker healing time and reduce hospital stays. Written by the senior editors with the contribution of internationally renowned robotic surgeons and academics, this is an invaluable resource for both beginner and experienced surgeons performing robotic procedures for the first time.

The Foundation and Art of Robotic Surgery features:

900+ photos and 900+ drawings of the standard anatomy, anatomical variations and surgical maneuversAccess to 200+ videos (video clips of the main steps and full procedures videos) with a subscription to AccessSurgeryFifty-one chapters covering General Principles of Robotic Surgery, Thyroid Surgery, Chest Surgery, Gastric and Bariatric Surgery, Intestinal Surgery, Spleen and Pancreas Surgery, Liver Surgery, Transplant Surgery, and moreClear, concise presentation of the instruments, tools, material, indications and relative contraindications to the robotic approach, preoperative phases and each operative stepsBoxed text highlighting tips and tricks, anatomical notions, common pitfalls, editorial comments and average time framesTechniques for robotic transplant surgery, renal aneurysm repair and single port robotic surgery principles

This text provides a state of the art overview of tools for guiding surgeons in the modern operating room. The text explains how many modalities in the current armamentarium of radiologic imaging have been brought to the operating room for real time use. It also explains the current use of near infrared, fluorescent, and chemo-luminescent imaging to guide minimally invasive and open surgery to improve outcome. The book is separated into two sections. The first, discusses the biologic principles that underlie novel visualization of normal organs and pathology. The currently available equipment and equipment anticipated in the near future is covered. The second section summarizes current clinical applications of advanced imaging and visualization in the OR. Novel means of visualizing normal anatomic structures such as nerves, bile duct, and vessels that enhance safety of many operations are covered. Novel biologic imaging using radio-labeled and fluorescent-labeled molecular probes that allow identification of inflammation, vascular abnormalities, and cancer are also discussed.Authored by scientists who pioneer research in optics and radiology, tool makers who use this knowledge to make surgical equipment, and surgeons who innovate the field of surgery using these new operative tools, Imaging and Visualization in the Modern Operating Room is a valuable guide for surgeons, residents and fellows entering the field.

The first edition of Robotic Surgery was written only a decade after the introduction of robotic technology. It was the first comprehensive robotic surgery reference and represented the early pioneering look ahead to the future of surgery. Building upon its success, this successor edition serves as a complete multi-specialty sourcebook for robotic surgery. It seeks to explore an in-depth look into surgical robotics and remote technologies leading to the goal of achieving the benefits of traditional surgery with the least disruption to the normal functions of the human body. Written by experts in the field, chapters cover the fundamental principles of robotic surgery and provide clear instruction on their clinical application and long term results. Most notably, one chapter on “The Blueprint for the Establishment of a Successful Robotic Surgery Program: Lessons from Admiral Hymen R. Rickover and the Nuclear Navy” outlines the many valuable lessons from the transformative change which was brought about by the introduction of nuclear technology into the conventional navy with Safety as the singular goal of the change process. Robotics represents a monumental triumph of surgical technology. Undoubtedly, the safety of the patient will be the ultimate determinant of its success.The second edition of Robotic Surgery aims to erase the artificial boundaries of specialization based on regional anatomy and serves as a comprehensive multispecialty reference for all robot surgeons. It allows them to contemplate crossing boundaries which are historically defined by traditional open surgery.
