Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with minimum follow-up of 5 years: A multi-center prospective study in Japan.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy is widely performed for small renal masses, achieving excellent perioperative and intermediate oncological outcomes. However, long-term oncological, functional, and quality of life outcomes after robot-a...

Comparison of perioperative outcomes among patients with exophytic, mesophytic, and endophytic renal tumors undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: It has been well documented that partial nephrectomy for completely endophytic renal tumors is a highly challenging procedure accompanied by several technical difficulties even with the assistance of a robotic surgical system. This study ...

Predicting perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted radical cystectomy: Data from the Asian Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy Consortium.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: To report the perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted radical cystectomy and elucidate their risk factors.

Efficacy of the opened legs position for protecting against postoperative rhabdomyolysis after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: A propensity score-matched analysis of perioperative outcomes.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study was to clarify the relationships of intraoperative surgical position with the incidence of postoperative rhabdomyolysis and with postoperative renal function to safely perform robot-assisted radical prostatect...

Impact of nerve sparing in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy on the risk of positive surgical margin and biochemical recurrence.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: Nerve sparing may increase positive surgical margin rate during radical prostatectomy. Our objective was to analyze the positive surgical margin rate and location as well as its impact on biochemical recurrence according to nerve sparing ...

Are there disparities in access to robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery among pediatric urology patients? US institutional experience.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVE: Literature suggests access to robotic surgery varies by race and payer status. We seek to investigate whether disparities exist in robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery among the pediatric urology population at our tertiary academic medical ...

Prediction of significant renal function decline after open, laparoscopic, and robotic partial nephrectomy: External validation of the Martini's nomogram on the RECORD2 project cohort.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: Martini et al. developed a nomogram to predict significant (>25%) renal function loss after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and identified four risk categories. We aimed to externally validate Martini's nomogram on a large, national, m...
