Overview

The purpose of this study is to collect data to evaluate safety and performance of the da Vinci SP Surgical System, Instruments and Accessories in hepatopancreatic biliary (HPB) and Foregut operations. HPB and Foregut operations of this study consist of cholecystectomy, fundoplication, gastrectomy, distal pancreatectomy, pancreaticoduodenectomy, esophagectomy, and hepatectomy.
