INTRODUCTION: Pyeloplasties are time-sensitive, and the most common robot assisted intervention performed in pediatric urology. Early intervention is intended to avoid permanent loss of renal function with negative long-term effects if surgery is del...
OBJECTIVE: To compare long-term oncologic outcomes in patients with clinically uterine-confined endometrioid endometrial cancer who underwent surgical staging with robot-assisted (RA) versus conventional laparoscopy.
OBJECTIVE: With the increased adoption of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy, the effects of unplanned conversions to an 'open' operation are ill-defined. This study aims to describe the impact of unplanned conversions of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy...
INTRODUCTION: Bariatric surgery is routinely performed using laparoscopic and robotic approaches. Musculoskeletal injuries are prevalent among both robotic and laparoscopic bariatric surgeons. Studies evaluating ergonomic differences between laparosc...
BACKGROUND: In the era of minimally invasive surgery, it is clear that a robust simulation model is required for the training of surgeons in advanced abdominal wall reconstruction. The purpose of this experimentation was to evaluate whether a porcine...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare perioperative, long-term oncological, and anorectal functional outcomes of robotic total mesorectal excision (R-TME) and laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (L-TME) sphincter-saving total mesorectal excision...
BACKGROUND: In laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (RHC) for right-sided colon cancer, accurate recognition of the vascular anatomy is required for appropriate lymph node harvesting and safe operative procedures. We aimed to develop a deep learning mode...
