%X <B>BACKGROUND: </B>This study aims to prove the feasibility and safety of robotic gastrectomy using the hinotori™ Surgical Robot System (Medicaroid Corporation, Kobe, Japan).<BR><B>METHODS: </B>We retrospectively enrolled the 16 patients who underwent gastrectomy by the hinotori™ Surgical Robot System for gastric cancer at our hospital between June 2023 and January 2024. Console surgeons performed almost all lymphadenectomies, including the clipping of vessels. Assistant surgeons supported the lymphadenectomy using vessel sealing devices and during reconstruction.<BR><B>RESULTS: </B>Thirteen patients were cStage I, one patient was cStage II, and two patients were cStage III. Distal gastrectomy, proximal gastrectomy, and total gastrectomy were performed in 11, 1, and 4 patients, respectively. D1+ and D2 lymphadenectomies were performed in 11 and 5 patients, respectively. Billroth-I, Billroth-II, Roux-en-Y, and esophagogastrostomy were performed in three, six, six, and one patients, respectively. The median operation time was 282 (245-338) min, and the median console time was 226 (185-266) min. The median blood loss was 28 (12-50) mL, and the median amylase levels in drainage fluid were 280 (148-377) U/L on postoperative day 1 and 74 (42-148) U/L on postoperative day 3. There was anastomotic leakage (Clavien-Dindo [CD] IIIa) in one patient who underwent proximal gastrectomy. The median postoperative hospital stay was 12.5 (12-14) days.<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>In this initial case series, the hinotori™ Surgical Robot System was found to be safe and feasible for patients with gastric cancer and is suggested to be appropriate for gastrectomy, including distal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy.
