摘要

This study was conducted to assess the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of robotic excision of choledochal cysts (CDCs) with Roux-en-Y hepatico-jejunostomy (HJ) in children at a high-volume tertiary care academic institute in India. We retrospectively reviewed electronic medical records of 50 pediatric patients who underwent robotic excision of CDCs with Roux-en-Y HJ between February 2022 and June 2025 at our institution. Data collected and analyzed encompassed patient demographics, clinical symptoms, imaging findings, classification of CDCs, preoperative treatment, operative details, postoperative outcomes, and follow-up status. All procedures were performed using the Da Vinci Xi robotic platform, employing four robotic arms and one assistant port. The cohort included 50 children (33 girls), with a median age of 6 (1–19) years and a median weight of 15.5 (9–59) kg. Preoperative ERCP with stenting was required in 12 (24%) children. The median console time was 320 (105–655) min, with a 4% conversion rate to open surgery due to intra-op hemorrhage. Postoperative complications occurred in 36% of patients, predominantly minor (Clavien-Dindo Grade I or II), including bile leak in 6%, which resolved without additional intervention. Major complications (Clavien-Dindo Grade III or IV) were observed in 8 (16%) patients, including HJ stricture (5) and small bowel obstruction (2). The median time to achieve full enteral feeds was 6 (4–10) days, while the average hospital stay was 7 (4–33) days. At a median follow-up of 23.5 months, all patients were asymptomatic with normal liver function tests and imaging. Robotic excision of CDC with Roux-en-Y HJ in children is a feasible, safe, and effective technique, offering numerous benefits while presenting manageable risks and complications. The precision and stability offered by the robotic platform translate into favorable outcomes, especially when combined with technical adaptations tailored to pediatric anatomy.
