Purpose
The da Vinci Surgical System family remains the most widely used surgical robotic system for laparoscopy. Data about gastric bypass surgery with the Xi Surgical System are not available yet. We compared Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery performed at our institution with the da Vinci Xi and the da Vinci Si Surgical System.
Methods
All robotic gastric bypass procedures performed between January 2013 and September 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. Patient demographics and operative and postoperative outcomes up to 30 days were compared for the da Vinci Xi and Si Surgical System. Robotic costs per procedure were modeled including posts for a standard set of robotic instruments, capital investment, and yearly maintenance.
Results
One-hundred forty-four Xi Surgical System and 195 Si Surgical System procedures were identified. Mean age (p = 0.9), gender distribution (p = 0.8), BMI (p = 0.6), and ASA scores (p > 0.5) were similar in both cohorts. Operating room times were similar in both groups (219.4 ± 58.8 vs. 227.4 ± 60.5 min for Xi vs. Si, p = 0.22). Docking times were significantly longer with the Xi compared with the Si Surgical System (9 ± 4.8 vs. 5.8 ± 4 min, p < 0.0001). There was no difference in incidence of minor (13.9 vs. 10.3%, p = 0.3) and major complications (5.6 vs. 5.1%, p = 1 for Xi vs. Si). Costs were higher for the Xi Surgical System caused by higher capital investment and yearly maintenance.
Conclusions
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery can be safely performed with the Xi Surgical System, while drawbacks include longer docking times and higher costs.
