In-Depth Survey of Scarring and Distress in Patients Undergoing Bilateral Axillo-Breast Approach Robotic Thyroidectomy or Conventional Open Thyroidectomy.

Surgical laparoscopy, endoscopy & percutaneous techniques
PURPOSE: Oncologic and surgical outcomes of bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) robotic thyroidectomy (RoT) are comparable with those of open thyroidectomy (OT). We compared degree of scarring and psychological/physical distress between OT and BA...

The Role of Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone Stimulation Test in Management of Hyperthyrotropinemia in Infants.

Journal of clinical research in pediatric endocrinology
OBJECTIVE: Hyperthyrotropinemia, which can be either a permanent or a transient state, is an asymptomatic condition and there is a controversy in management and long-term consequences. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of thyrotropin-...

Robotic Hysterectomy for Endometrial Cancer in Obese Patients With Comorbidities: Evaluating Postoperative Complications.

International journal of gynecological cancer : official journal of the International Gynecological Cancer Society
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is to determine (1) if there is a relationship between increasing body mass index (BMI) and postoperative complications in patients undergoing robotic hysterectomy for endometrial cancer and (2) if there are ad...

New Prognostic Indicator is Useful for Predicting the Survival of Patients with Unresectable Advanced Colorectal Cancer.

Hepato-gastroenterology
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Complete resection of tumors is possible after heavy chemotherapy in a few patients with unresectable colorectal cancer (UCRC). This study evaluated the ability of new prognostic score to identify such patients.

Transoral robotic surgery alone for oropharyngeal cancer: quality-of-life outcomes.

JAMA otolaryngology-- head & neck surgery
IMPORTANCE: Few studies have examined quality-of-life (QOL) outcomes in patients who undergo transoral robotic surgery (TORS) alone (ie, without adjuvant radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy).

Ultrasound-guided subcostal transversus abdominis plane infiltration with liposomal bupivacaine for patients undergoing robotic-assisted hysterectomy: a retrospective study.

International journal of gynecological cancer : official journal of the International Gynecological Cancer Society
OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine the effect of a subcostal transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block with liposomal bupivacaine on postoperative maximal pain score and length of hospital stay among women undergoing robotic-assisted hysterectomy.

Robotic-assisted laparoscopic complex myomectomy: a single medical center's experience.

Taiwanese journal of obstetrics & gynecology
OBJECTIVE: Conventional laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) has inherent limitations due to its rigid structure. The robotic system is a newly developed technology equipped with a flexible EndoWrist that offers good performance in delicate motions. Our obje...
