In order to make the children traumatic and recover quickly, on June 20, the general surgery experts of Wuhan Children's Hospital used Da Vinci robots for him. This is the 500th robotic surgery since the hospital launched the Da Vinci Robot in October 2020.

Lei Lei (pseudonym) lives in Huanggang. Two days ago, Lei Lei always said that his stomach had a pain and had some nausea and vomiting. Ms. Zhang felt very strange: the child had neither things that could not be clean nor injured, so she took Lei Lei to go to the local hospital for treatment.

On June 11, Ms. Zhang took her child to Wuhan Children's Hospital for treatment, and confirmed that Lei Lei suffered from congenital biliary cysts. If the treatment is not timely, the child's condition will become heavier and may even be in danger of life. According to the child's condition, Yan Xueqiang, the person in charge of the second ward of the general surgery area of ​​the hospital, considers the use of Da Vinci robots to perform surgery.

On June 20, the operation began. Under the high-definition naked eye "3D" vision, Yan Xueqiang manipulated Da Vinci robot to remove lesions such as gallbladder cysts and other lesions, and then the hepatical pipe air-intestinal Roux-Y coincidence to help the children's bile and pancreatic derivation and smoothly discharged into the intestine. It also eliminates the reflection of pancreatic fluid.

Duan Xufei, deputy dean of the hospital and an expert in general surgery, introduced that on October 23, 2020, Wuhan Children's Hospital took the lead in introducing Da Vinci robots in the National Women's and Children's Hospital.

In the future, under the development of 5G networks, robot surgery will also span regional restrictions to achieve online remote surgery and benefit more children. However, experts also remind parents that robotic surgery is not suitable for everyone. It is more suitable for higher complexity and certain difficulty coefficients. Experts will formulate the optimal surgical solution based on the specific characteristics of the children.
