Trend of development and prospect of gastrointestinal surgery in era of minimally invasive

The development and popularization of minimally invasive treatment is gradually evolving in the course of human fighting against disease. Minimally invasive surgery has been widely accepted and carried out because of the advantages of smaller trauma, less pain, little impact on the body and physiological metabolism of the body. The evidence-based medicine makes it important to conduct clinical trials to confirm the technical and oncological safety. With the development of minimally invasive technologies, including three-dimensional laparoscopic, natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery, robotic surgery system, minimally invasive surgery are providing more opportunities and challenges for gastrointestinal diseases. The standard conduction of minimally invasive surgery in gastroenterology disease makes it important to improve surgical procedure safety and treatment effects.
