BACKGROUND: Facing the 0.7-22% incidence rate of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus (IVCTT), there are usually no obvious symptoms and signs when the tumor thrombus completely blocks the IVCTT in the early stage.1.J...
INTRODUCTION: Robotic-assisted surgery in select patients has been shown to result in less peri-operative morbidity. Few studies have explored the association of robotic-assisted gynecology oncology surgery complication rates and increasing age. Our ...
In recent years, there has been an expansion in the development of simulators that use virtual reality (VR) as a learning tool. In surgery where robots are used, VR serves as a revolutionary technology to help medical doctors train in using these rob...
Surgical video analysis facilitates education and research. However, video recordings of endoscopic surgeries can contain privacy-sensitive information, especially if the endoscopic camera is moved out of the body of patients and out-of-body scenes a...
We compared the surgical outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy (RAH) and total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). This single-center cohort study compared 139 RAH cases from January, 2017 to September, 2021 and 291 TLH cases between Janu...
We report the world's first case series of ten robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) procedures performed with the Dexter robotic system (Distalmotion SA, Épalinges, Switzerland). The Dexter system is an open robotic platform that integrates in...
PURPOSE: To report the trends, predictors, and patient outcomes of same-day discharge (SDD) versus non-SDD for robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).
