Really pleased & proud to have published the VOLCANO trial in Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, showing that open console robotic surgery reduces surgeon ergonomic risk during major colorectal resection. This is the first randomised controlled trial of open console robotic ergonomics (using CMR Surgical's #Versius system) and the first RCT from our research group at Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. Hopefully first of many more to come...

"Laparoscopic Instruments: Shaping the Future of Surgery" In the realm of modern surgery, the evolution of laparoscopic instruments stands as a testament to innovation, precision, and patient-centered care. This blog delves into the intricate world of laparoscopic instrumentation, shedding light on its pivotal role in revolutionizing surgical practices worldwide.

Did you know that patients can receive minimally invasive, advanced robotic surgery from the da Vinci® Surgical System, when appropriate for the procedure? Robotic surgery involves a small incision and allows the surgeon to maneuver into confined spaces within the body with 3D magnification while providing a greater range of motion and precision with specialized instruments. As you plan for 2024, talk to your surgeon to see if robotic surgery is right for you!

**AI-assisted surgery:** AI is being used to develop robotic surgical systems that can perform complex procedures with greater precision and accuracy than human surgeons. This could improve patient outcomes and reduce the risk of complications. 🤸

Robotic surgery offers improved visualization, range of motion, and ergonomics over traditional laparoscopy; However, the system is costly, cumbersome, and lacks tactile feedback as you don't feel the consistency of the tissue you are handling. As of today, the wide use of robotic systems in general surgery is mostly limited to esophageal, rectal, and hernia surgery in which the robot confers the most significant advantage.
