About

The third space robotic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (TS-RECS) combines the endoscopic techniques and the merits of Da Vinci surgical robot, such as flexible and precise instruments, tremors filtering system and a 3-D surgical view. TS-RECS takes full advantage of the methodology of the third space, making it possible to dissect gastric GISTs (gastrointestinal stromal tumors) entirely without the damage of mucosal layer. Here, this study preliminarily assessed the feasibility, safety and effectivity of the novel hybrid operation.
