Robotic repair of iatrogenic biliary duct injuries offers significant advantages over traditional open surgery.
- Significantly less blood loss with robotic repair: 51 ml vs. 314 ml (p < 0.001).
- Shorter hospital stays: 4 days vs. 16 days (p < 0.001).
Robotic procedures had similar complication rates to open repairs with no bile leaks or strictures in the robotic group.
- Delayed robotic repairs had longer operative times but comparable outcomes.
