Learning curve assessment Analysis of operative times by case sequence showed a trend towards improvement, with cases 8–10 averaging 245 ± 18 min versus 278 ± 25 min for cases 1–3, representing a 12% reduction ( P = 0.11).

Complication profile and long-term outcomes While our 10% overall complication rate versus 20% in matched OKT patients did not reach statistical significance, the complete absence of wound-related complications through 5-year follow-up is noteworthy.
