Robot-assisted radical cystectomy: surgical technique, perioperative and oncologic outcomes.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Radical cystectomy is a complex procedure that encompasses surgery involving the urinary, gastrointestinal tracts and the retroperitoneum, with significant morbidity. Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) has been introduced to improve perioperative outcomes.

Relationship of MRI-measured pelvimetric dimensions and surgical positions with anaesthesia parameters in robotic perineal prostatectomy.

Theaim of this study was to determine the effect formedby pelvic diameters preoperatively measured throughmultiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) and different surgical positions on anesthesiaparameters used during perineal robot-assisted radicalprostatectomy (p-RARP). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Six different pelvimetricdimensions were determined preoperatively.Respiratory and hemodynamic ...
