THE STUDY ANALYZED 151 PATIENTS UNDERGOING RBS BETWEEN SEPTEMBER OF 2022 TO JANUARY OF 2025. A TOTAL OF 40 PATIENTS UNDERWENT BREAST SURGERY USING THE DA VINCI SI SURGICAL SYSTEM AND 137 PATIENTS UNDERWENT BREAST SURGERY USING THE DA VINCI XI SURGICAL SYSTEM. A TOTAL OF 10 PATIENTS EXPERIENCED COMPLICATIONS INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: 1 PATIENT EXPERIENCED AN INFECTION DUE TO SKIN BURNS AND LOST THE PROSTHESIS, 7 PATIENTS HAD PERIOPERATIVE SKIN REDNESS AND SWELLING WHICH IMPROVED AFTER TOPICAL NITROGLYCERIN OINTMENT WAS ADMINISTERED, AND 2 PATIENTS WERE DISCHARGED FROM THE HOSPITAL WITHOUT DISINFECTION AND DRESSING CHANGE OF THE DRAINAGE TUBE, RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF THE RETROGRADE INFECTION PROSTHESIS.
