Abstract
We found that surgeon ability to perform robotic surgery in an infant is restricted by collisions when the infant has an ASIS measurement of 13 cm or less or a PXD of 15 cm or less. Objective assessment of anterior superior iliac spine and puboxyphoid distance can aid in selecting which infants can safely and efficiently undergo robotic intervention with a minimum of instrument collision, thereby minimizing operative time.104Figure. The robotic instrument collision category is significantly associated with console time (ANOVA p < 0.001).
