Strengths and limitations
As far as we know, there were few investigations about robotic-assisted
MDT gynaecological surgeries in the world. One reason was Da Vinci
Surgical System actually hasn’t distributed widely all over the world,
the other was that not all the hospitals had proper multi-disciplinary
teams. And most researches of gynaecological MDT treatments paid more
attention on preoperative assessment and determination of final
treatment. It seemed that we ignored cooperative MDT part in the
operating rooms. Our research data could exactly provide some reference
for gynaecological surgeons to perform a robotic-assisted MDT
gynaecological surgery, and the surgical method truly provided both
safety and precision.
It was a pity that only 39 qualified cases were collected in our
research. The quantity of cases may not enough to help us get believable
conclusions if we split the cases into several groups, so all the cases
were mixed and analyzed the fundamental surgical index. We still had to
collect more proper cases to prove the value of MDT pattern applied in
robotic-assisted gynaecological surgeries.
