Comparative study of surgical knots using a domestically produced Chinese surgical robot, laparoscope, or barehanded approach

ConclusionsThe square knots produced by MicroHand were tighter and more solid than those by laparoscope, although the triple knots generated by the two methods were similar. Also MicroHand required a smaller operational space than the laparoscope.
