Prediction of orthognathic surgery plan from 3D cephalometric analysis via deep learning.

BACKGROUND: Preoperative planning of orthognathic surgery is indispensable for achieving ideal surgical outcome regarding the occlusion and jaws' position. However, orthognathic surgery planning is sophisticated and highly experience-dependent, which requires comprehensive consideration of facial morphology and occlusal function. This study aimed to investigate a robust and automatic method based ...

Perioperative, functional, and oncologic outcomes in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy previous transurethral resection of prostate: a systematic review and meta-analysis of comparative trials.

The influence of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) on patients who have previously undergone transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) versus TURP-naive patients is still debatable. The present study aimed to compare perioperative, functional, and oncologic outcomes of RARP between TURP and Non-TURP groups. We systematically searched the databases such as Science, PubMed, Embase, We...

Comparison between intra- and postoperative outcomes of the da Vinci SP and da Vinci Xi robotic platforms in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy.

The new SP robot incorporates a single trocar that houses a flexible camera and three bi-articulated arms, which minimize the number of incisions need...

Outcomes over 20 years performing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy: a single-surgeon experience.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a single surgeon's 20-year experience with robotic radical prostatectomy.

Deep Learning-Based Computer-Aided Detection System for Preoperative Chest Radiographs to Predict Postoperative Pneumonia.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: The role of preoperative chest radiography (CR) for prediction of postoperative pneumonia remains uncertain. We aimed to dev...
