Improved Short-Term Outcomes With Fully Robotic Recipient Adult Living Donor Liver Transplantation
Fully robotic recipient LDLT is feasible and safe, with potential benefits including reduced morbidity, faster recovery, and shorter hospital stay. These findings support broader adoption of robotic techniques in liver transplantation, pending further cost-effectiveness studies and randomized controlled trials.
