Summary

This trial aims to gather information about the safety and effectiveness of using the da Vinci SP Surgical System, Instruments, and Accessories in surgeries involving the liver, pancreas, gallbladder, and stomach.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals needing surgery for certain conditions of the liver, pancreas, gallbladder, stomach, and esophagus. It's not clear what specific criteria must be met or who can't participate without more detailed inclusion and exclusion information.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the da Vinci SP Surgical System in various surgeries like gallbladder removal and stomach surgery to see how safe it is and how well it works.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not specified but may include typical risks associated with surgical procedures such as pain, infection, bleeding, or complications related to robotic-assisted operations.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: da Vinci SP® Single-Port Robotic Surgical SystemExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This study will be separated into four stages, depending on the condition the participant is diagnosed with. Each Participant will go through (1) one operation. Stage One will include five (5) subjects who undergo cholecystectomy and five (5) subjects who undergo hiatal hernia repair with fundoplication (Nissen or Toupet) for a total of ten (10) subjects. Stage Two will include five (5) subjects who undergo gastrectomy and five (5) subjects who undergo distal pancreatectomy for a total of ten (10) subjects. Stage Three will include five (5) subjects who undergo pancreaticoduodenectomy and five (5) subjects who undergo esophagectomy for a total of ten (10) subjects. Stage Four will include five (5) subjects who undergo hepatectomy
