Robotic-assisted colorectal surgery increases the adherence to enhanced recovery concepts

1

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols improve postoperative outcomes through multimodal, evidence-based approaches.
2

Robotic-assisted surgery offers advantages over laparoscopic techniques, including better visualization and reduced postoperative stay.
3

The study analyzed perioperative outcomes of robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic colon resections within an established ERAS framework.
4

A total of 164 patients participated, with 51.2% undergoing robotic-assisted surgery and 48.8% laparoscopic surgery.
5

The study aims to evaluate adherence to ERAS protocols and compare surgical outcomes between robotic and laparoscopic approaches.
