Predictive Factors of Early Postoperative Complications After Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy for Urothelial Bladder Carcinoma.

To identify protective and risk factors of early postoperative complications after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) for urothelial bladder carcinoma. Data of all robot-assisted cystectomies performed in six French centers between February 2010 and December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. All RARCs for bladder cancer (muscle-invasive and high-risk or Bacillus Calmette-Guerin-resistant...

The Ability of Deep Learning Models to Identify Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty Implant Design From Plain Radiographs.

INTRODUCTION: The surgical management of patients with failed total hip or knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA) necessitates the identification of the implant manufacturer and model. Failure to accurately identify implant design leads to delays in care, increased morbidity, and healthcare costs. The automated identification of implant designs has the potential to assist in the surgical management of pa...
