Intracorporeal triangular anastomosis enhances robotic gastrectomy safety

The study evaluated the intracorporeal triangular anastomotic technique (INTACT) in robotic distal gastrectomy (RDG) with Billroth I reconstruction, involving 81 patients aged 31 to 91 years. Results showed median blood loss was 0 ml, and postoperative stays averaged 8 days. Importantly, there were no incidences of reanastomosis, anastomotic leakage, reoperations, or strictures. With enhanced precision and stability provided by robotic features, INTACT presents a reliable option for safer surgical outcomes.
