ResumoRobotic surgery has been used for a long time. With advantages over traditional surgical methods, it is earning space and expanding use to daily medical practice in several surgical specialties. This Technical Note presents an endoscopic robotic posterior shoulder approach using the DaVinci® robot. It can allow the surgeon to perform latissimus dorsi transfer endoscopically and associate it with levator scapulae and rhomboid minor mini-open transfers to treat accessory nerve lesions with trapezium muscle palsy. This technique is an alternative to Eden-Lange and triple-tendon transfer.
