Case Report: Robotically Assisted Excision of Cystic Tumor Located in a Difficult to Access Area in the Liver
Introduction: Cystic liver lesions may be benign cysts, parasitic infestations, or malignant tumors requiring surgical resection. Hilar location and relation to major vasculature present challenges in conventional surgical access and resection.Materials and Methods: We describe totally robotic excis...
