Comparison of Open and Robot-Assisted Kidney Transplantation in terms of Perioperative and Postoperative Outcomes.

International journal of clinical practice
BACKGROUND: The gold standard treatment method for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is renal transplantation (RT). RT can be done with open or minimally invasive surgical methods. We aimed to compare the outcomes between patients who underwent robot-as...

Robotic versus hand-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy: comparison of two minimally invasive techniques in kidney transplantation.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted donor nephrectomy (RDN) is increasingly used due to its advantages such as its precision and reduced learning curve when compared to laparoscopic techniques. Concerns remain among surgeons regarding possible longer warm ischemia time. ...

Robot-assisted kidney transplantation as a minimally invasive approach for kidney transplant recipients: A systematic review and meta-analyses.

International journal of surgery (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) has emerged as an alternative for kidney transplant recipients with the potential benefits of minimally invasive surgery. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to compare the c...

Effectiveness of Retzius-Sparing Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy in a Renal Transplant Recipient: a Case Report.

Transplantation proceedings
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer (PCa) has increased as a long-term outcome of advanced immunosuppression in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (Rs-RARP) is reportedly less time-consuming and has a hig...

Robot-Assisted Kidney Transplantation: Initial Experience with a Modified Hypothermia Technique.

Urologia internationalis
INTRODUCTION: The aim of the study was to report our initial experience of robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) with a modified hypothermia technique.

Ranking patients on the kidney transplant waiting list based on fuzzy inference system.

BMC nephrology
BACKGROUND: Kidney transplantation is the best treatment for people with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Kidney allocation is the most important challenge in kidney transplantation process. In this study, a Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) was developed ...

Living Donor Robot-Assisted Kidney Transplantation: a New Standard of Care?

Current urology reports
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) has the potential to combine the advantages of minimally invasive surgery with the best renal replacement treatment. Over the last decade, the results were encouraging, as surgical and f...

Forecasting of Patient-Specific Kidney Transplant Function With a Sequence-to-Sequence Deep Learning Model.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Like other clinical biomarkers, trajectories of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) after kidney transplant are characterized by intra-individual variability. These fluctuations hamper the distinction between alarming graft functi...
