Future surgical techniques and technologies will complement and supplement current surgeon’s or human capacity and capability. Herein, we report the first example of such intelligent collaborative technology for commonly performed complex soft tissue surgery. Methods: We developed the next generation of robot, Smart Tissue Autonomy Robot (STAR) that consists of unique vision system combining 3-dimensional plenoptic and near infrared imaging, 7-degrees of freedom positioning platform (KUKA robots) and modified Endo360 end effector tool for suturing. We Oral Session (AO1) compared standard metrics and functional outcomes of anastomoses done by STAR to those done by Oral Session OPEN, MIS and da Vinci. Results: Extensive comparisons of semi-autonomous and autonomous anastomoses done by STAR to OPEN, MIS and da Vinci demonstrated that this first generation of intelligent robot can perform such complex surgical task as an anastomosis comparable to experienced surgeons. Conclusion: This proof-of-concept demonstration illustrates that autonomous surgical task can be accomplished even for a complex soft tissue surgical task such as intestinal anastomosis for the first time. Surprisingly, additional intelligence and autonomy promise improving technical safety, functional outcome and potential access to optimized surgical techniques for all surgeons. Dr. Kim is Vice President of the Sheikh Zayed Institute for Pediatric Surgical Innovation, and serves as Associate Surgeon-in-Chief of the Joseph E. Robert, Jr., Center for Surgical Care at Children’s National. Dr. Kim’s research focuses on the development of new paradigm and technologies such as intelligence and autonomy for future surgical technology; smarter simulation technologies; and the potential of imaging technologies such as high intensity-focused ultrasound (HIFU) as non-invasive alternatives to conventional surgery. He is the lead for FDA funded National Capital Consortium for Pediatric Device Innovation (NCC-PDI) (www.innovate4kids.org). His research is supported by several NIH grants. 768 日小外会誌 第52巻 3 号 2016年 5 月 First Day (May 24, Tuesday) 10:00–12:00 AO1 Esophagus & Thoracic Keynote Lecture AO1-K2 Current thoughts about thoracoscopic repair of esophageal atresia Surgeon-In-Chief/Senior Vice President, Children’s Mercy Hospital Kansas City, Missouri, USA George W Holcomb III In 1941, Dr. Cameron Haight successfully performed an open repair of an infant with esophageal atresia (EA) and tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). The first thoracoscopic repair of EA was reported in a three month old infant in 1999 and the first thoracoscopic repair of EA and TEF was reported by Dr. Steve Rothenberg in 2002. Thus, the thoracoscopic repair is a relatively new approach when compared with the open operation. The thoracoscopic repair has several advantages over the open operation which primarily center on improvement of the potential musculoskeletal sequelae that develop after a thoracotomy. In addition, there is superior visualization of the anatomy and it is usually easy to identify the TEF for ligation. However, the thoracoscopic approach can be a technically demanding operation, especially suturing the two esophageal ends together without significant complications. In addition, optimal anesthetic management is becoming increasingly valued by surgeons as visualization and lung deflation are very important when using this approach. This lecture will discuss the evolution of the thoracoscopic technique over the past 15 years as well as a discussion about current advantages and problems with this approach. Dr. George W. Holcomb, III was born in Osaka, Japan in 1953. He attended the University of Virginia for college and then Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. His general surgery training was at Vanderbilt Medical Center and his pediatric surgery training was at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. He began his pediatric surgery practice in 1988 as an Assistant and subsequently Associate Professor of Surgery in the Department of Pediatric Surgery at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. In 1999, he was recruited to replace Dr. Keith Ashcraft as Surgeon-in-Chief at Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri. In addition to being the Surgeon-in-Chief, he is also Senior Vice-President and Director of the Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery Dr. Holcomb is best known for his interest in minimally invasive surgery in infants and children and his emphasis on evidence-based medicine. He is the author of over 240 peer-reviewed publications and 50 book chapters, and has been the editor of 5 textbooks. In addition, he is a member of numerous professional and surgical societies including the American Surgical Association, the American Pediatric Surgical Association, the European Pediatric Surgical Association, the British Association of Pediatric Surgeons and the World Organization of Federations of Associations of Pediatric Surgeons (WOFAPS). In addition, he is a past president of the International Pediatric Endosurgical Group (IPEG). 日小外会誌 第52巻 3 号 2016年 5 月 769 First Day (May 24, Tuesday) 10:00–12:00 AO1 Esophagus & Thoracic Keynote Lecture AO1-K3 Surgical technique for esophageal replacement All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India Devendra Kumar Gupta, Shilpa Sharma, Vishesh Jain Surgical techniques for replacing the esophagus in children include Colon interposition, Gastric tube, Gastric transposition and jejunal interposition. Surgery is usually a well planned procedure performed under general anesthesia except rarely in emergency. Replacement is indicated for long gap esophageal atresia, following major leaks after surgery for TEF/OA, esophageal strictures, and rarely after major trauma, scleroderma, candiasis. • Colon Interposition is the time tested procedure based on middle colic or the left upper colic Vessels, passing behind the stomach, with a colo gastric in the abdomen and the esophago-colic anastomosis in the neck. Being no suture line in the chest, postoperative complication are less common and less serious. However, long term complications include colo-gastric reflux, fetid smell, colonic segment dilation, Oral Session (AO1) stricture, and might requiring re-do procedures. Oral Session • Gastric tube with pyloric or fundal base (iso or reverse) though matches with the size of the lumen of the esophagus, is technically more demanding and associated with quite serious immediate and early postoperative complications eg. Leak in the neck, mediastinitis, necrosis and stricture of the tube. Long term results are good. • In Gastric transposition, fundus is the highest point and can be brought in the neck for primary anstomosis via hiatal or substernal route based on right gastric vessels, gastroepiploic vessel and the gastroepiploic arcade. Duodenum is mobilized. Spleen is preserved. Pyloromyotomy or pyloroplasty is always performed as vagotomy is invariably is done. Post operative complications include leak in the neck, gastric stasis and respiratory distress due bulky stomach. Neonates require dedicated ICU and postoperative ventilator support. However, there is only one anastomosis in neck. • There is little experience reported with the use of jejunum to replace the esophagus due to the shortened mesentery, with 60-90% success reported from Italy and Japan. Since 1980, of 118 esophageal replacements included; gastric pull up – 53 (including 32 in newborns), colon interposition – 48, and gastric tube – 17. Stomach was the only option in Newborns with 85% success. Authors prefer to use gastric transposition in infants upto 1 year age and thereafter colon interposition. Mediastinal route is preferred unless inaccessible. Being major, surgery should be done in tertiary care level hospitals by the experienced team of surgeons familiar with various replacement techniques and able to follow them up for long to detect and manage the specific post operative complications, if any Devendra Gupta, Professor and Head, Department of pediatric Surgery from the autonomous All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, has trained 68 pediatric surgeons, published 12 books, 266 peer- reviewed articles and 203 book-chapters during the past 35 years.
