China News Network, Haikou, March 27 (Wu Jincai, Chen Jiacheng) Hainan Provincial People's Hospital independently completed the first case of the fourth generation of Da Vinci robotic bile duct exploration in Hainan on the 27th.

It is understood that Hainan Provincial People's Hospital newly introduced the advanced fourth-generation "Da Vinci Xi" robot system. Compared with the second and third-generation Da Vinci surgical robot systems, the fourth-generation Xi Da Vinci surgical robot system, in addition to inheriting the advantages of the third-generation Si robot surgical system, has enhanced many new functions, which is particularly suitable for more complex and sophisticated Surgery, to achieve more detailed anatomy, fine suture, bile duct, vascular anastomosis and reconstruction.

Wu Jincai, chief physician of hepatobiliary surgery at Hainan Provincial People's Hospital, said that in the past, placing T-tubes for laparoscopic cholecystectomy and suture the common bile duct was time-consuming and laborious. A doctor skilled in traditional laparoscopy is as slow as an hour and as fast as half an hour. The application of the Da Vinci robot only took 5 minutes, and the field of vision was very good. The stitching was neat, detailed, reliable and easy to complete. It is of great help to reduce postoperative complications and rapid recovery.

Wu Jincai said that the Da Vinci robot is an advanced endoscope system. For abdominal surgery, it is an advanced laparoscopy system. This is reflected in artificial intelligence. It can successfully complete traditional surgery and laparoscopic surgery. local. For example, traditional surgery relies on the naked eye, has no magnification function, and cannot see the fine structure; and although the surgeon's wrist is dexterous, there is also an angle out of reach. Although laparoscopic surgery has a magnifying function, the function of the wrist is not exerted due to the slender operation lever. All operations depend on the fulcrum of the abdominal wall. It is difficult to complete fine sutures. The anastomosis of bile ducts and blood vessels requires a long learning curve.

"The Da Vinci robotic laparoscopic system overcomes the above shortcomings well. It can be three-dimensional with the naked eye, can be enlarged 10-15 times, and can change the perspective at any time according to the needs of the operation. Degree has increased greatly. "Wu Jincai said. (Finish)
