[Gentle Method to Elevate Left Liver Lobe in Robot Assisted Gastrectomy].

Le résumé fourni par la source

Robot-assisted gastrectomy with the Davinci XiTM has been performed in our department since August 2019. This technique requires elevation of the left liver lobe. In order to prevent perioperative liver injury and expansion of postoperative subcutaneous emphysema, we use a silicone disc(HAKKO MEDICAL Co., Ltd.)and thread to elevate the liver. After docking the Davinci system, we move the needle as follows:(ⅰ). left side peritoneum near the left triangular ligament, (ⅱ). silicone rubber(, ⅲ). center of crus(, ⅳ). silicone rubber(, ⅴ). hepatic cirrus, and(ⅵ). right side peritoneum. Both ends of the thread are guided out of the abdominal cavity from both hepatic circumflex by end-close, forming a V-shape with the center of crus at the bottom, which provides a stable and effective view of the liver. Fifty-three cases were performed after introduction of this elevation technique. Median AST and ALT on postoperative day 1 were 37(14-1,556)IU/L and 30(10- 1,676)IU/L, respectively, although small subcutaneous emphysema confined to the anterior chest and upper abdominal wall was observed in 2 patients(3.8%). No cases of extensive subcutaneous emphysema involving the neck or extremities were observed. This elevation technique protects the liver and may reduce the incidence of postoperative subcutaneous emphysema.
