BACKGROUND: Tumors with a high nephrometry score represent a challenging surgical scenario for which robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) is a primary option in expert hands.
BACKGROUND: Prior studies on robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) have shown that preservation of the anterior periprostatic structures is associated with good functional outcomes in terms of urinary continence and erectile function. With...
Clinical data on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) performed with the new Hugo robot-assisted surgery (RAS) system are scarce. We described surgical outcomes of 112 consecutive patients who underwent RARP ± extended pelvic lymph-node dissec...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) training usually takes place in vivo, and methods vary across countries/institutions. No common system exists to objectively assess trainee ability to perform RAPN at predetermined performance lev...
