All recruiting trials (5)
-
Paravertebral Catheter Analgesia Versus Epidural Analgesia for Totally Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy
This trial tests whether paravertebral catheter analgesia can provide comparable pain control to epidural analgesia for patients undergoing totally minimally invasive esophagectomy.
-
Robot-assisted versus open lateral pancreaticojejunostomy for symptomatic chronic pancreatitis
This trial will test whether robot-assisted or open lateral pancreaticojejunostomy leads to better early recovery for adults with chronic pancreatitis and a dilated main pancreatic duct.
-
Laparoscopic versus robot-assisted left-sided pancreas removal for benign and premalignant lesions
This trial will randomize adults needing elective left-sided pancreas removal for benign or premalignant lesions to laparoscopic or robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery to see if one approach leads to faster recovery and fewer complications.
-
Assessing lymph node removal quality during minimally invasive gastric cancer surgery
This study is testing a new scoring system to see if it can help doctors better assess lymph node removal during minimally invasive surgery for stomach cancer and improve patient outcomes.
-
Minimally invasive surgery for early stage cervical cancer patients
This study tests whether a new minimally invasive surgery for early stage cervical cancer is as safe and effective as traditional open surgery.
