What is it about?
The clinical effectiveness of robotic versus conventional laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer
Featured Image
Why is it important?
To determine the effectiveness of robotic laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer and identify future knowledge gap to examine the cost-effectiveness of robotic laparoscopic surgery
Perspectives
Robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery improves clinical outcomes (lower mortality, blood loss, and infection) in colorectal cancer, at the expenses of longer duration of operation time.
