RESUMEN
Multiport robots are now widely used for total gastrectomy for gastric cancer, while there is almost a void of research on whether single-port (SP) robots can be used for total gastrectomy. Here, we report a case of a 75-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with gastric cardia adenocarcinoma by gastroscopy and underwent total gastrectomy assisted by the SHURUI SP robot. We successfully accomplished total gastrectomy and D2 lymph node dissection using the novel SP robotic platform. The patient was discharged from the hospital successfully with no complications during or after the surgery. Pathologic diagnosis showed adenocarcinoma of the gastric mucosa with partial signet-ring cell carcinoma, and no metastasis was found in the 29 cleared lymph nodes. The use of the SHURUI SP robot for total gastrectomy in treating gastric cancer is both technically feasible and safe.
