Abstract

Robotic surgery has expanded minimally invasive options across several surgical specialties, yet adoption in peripheral vascular surgery remains limited. Groin incisions carry a high risk of wound infection with potentially devastating consequences. The da Vinci Single Port (SP) surgical system enables development of a subcutaneous space, relocating the incision away from the femoral region and po…
