Abstract
In today's world, high-tech surgical interventions are gaining more and more popularity. Among them is robotic surgery, particularly in childhood. Purpose - is to present the first experience of using robotic equipment in minimally invasive treatment of children with surgical pathology in one of the largest regional clinics of Ukraine. Materials and methods. In total, 13 children with different nosological units and different ages were operated on (the youngest child is 6 years old). Results. When analyzing the results, it was established that robotic surgery has a number of advantages and can be more widely used in children's surgery. The necessary conditions for robotic operations are characterized. Conclusions. Robotic surgery has a number of advantages and can be more widely used in pediatric surgery. Robotic surgery may expand the range of surgical interventions and decrease the age of patients qualifying for robotic surgery. When installing the equipment, the multi-vector nature of the clinic should be taken into account. The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Declaration. The study protocol was approved by the Local Ethics Committee of the participating institution. The informed consent of the patient was obtained for conducting the studies. The authors declare no conflict of interest.
