Comparison of clinical outcomes and quality of life for robotic versus laparoscopic surgery in elderly patients with mid-low rectal cancer: a multicenter cohort study with inverse probability of treatment weighting analysis

BackgroundThe rising incidence of rectal cancer (RC) in elderly patients contrasts with the scarcity of robust evidence comparing robotic-assisted and laparoscopic resection in this population. This study evaluated clinical outcomes and quality-of-life (QoL) metrics between these approaches in elder...
