ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND AIMS:
The lack of tissue traction and instrument dexterity to allow for adequate visualization and effective dissection were the main issues in performing endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Robot-assisted systems may provide advantages. In this study we developed a novel transendoscopic telerobotic system and evaluated its performance in ESD.METHODS:
A miniature dual-arm robotic endoscopic assistant for minimally invasive surgery (DREAMS) was developed. The DREAMS system contained the current smallest robotic ESD instruments and was compatible with the commercially available dual-channel endoscope. After the system was established, a prospective randomized controlled study was conducted to validate the performance of the DREAMS-assisted ESD in terms of efficacy, safety, and workload by comparing it with the conventional technique.RESULTS:
Two robotic instruments can achieve safe collaboration and provide sufficient visualization and efficient dissection during ESD. Forty ESDs in the stomach and esophagus of 8 pigs were completed by DREAMS-assisted ESD or conventional ESD. Submucosal dissection time was comparable between the 2 techniques, but DREAMS-assisted ESD demonstrated a significantly lower muscular injury rate (15% vs 50%, P = .018) and workload scores (22.30 vs 32.45, P < .001). In the subgroup analysis of esophageal ESD, DREAMS-assisted ESD showed significantly improved submucosal dissection time (6.45 vs 16.37 minutes, P = .002), muscular injury rate (25% vs 87.5%, P = .041), and workload (21.13 vs 40.63, P = .001).CONCLUSIONS:
We developed a novel transendoscopic telerobotic system, named DREAMS. The safety profile and technical feasibility of ESD were significantly improved with the assistance of the DREAMS system, especially in the narrower esophageal lumen.
