Robotic colonoscopy in action 🔦🤖🕹️ This first-in-human study presented today by Marcin Romanczyk at #UEGWeek showcases the Triton system, which uses a remotely controlled colonoscope and overtube incorporating dual dynamic rigidisation technology. By selectively stiffening flexible segments, it maintains scope configuration, minimises looping and enables precise tip deflection and rotation. This potentially improves navigation, stability and endoscopist ergonomics. His proof of concept study included 50 patients across two phases. Caecal intubation was achieved in 100%, without repositioning, abdominal pressure or conversion to conventional colonoscopy. Median caecal intubation time was 13 minutes. Adenoma detection rate was 54.2%, with successful resection of all 77 polyps. No adverse events occurred during 14-day follow-up. This causes far less physical and mental load for the endoscopist, and in is view, is way better than conventional colonoscopy. Could we be seeing a glimpse of the future of colonoscopy?
