BACKGROUND: Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a critical complication of laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG). However, there are no widely recognized anatomical landmarks to prevent POPF during LG. This study aimed to identify anatomical landmarks...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to enhance surgical practice by predicting anatomical structures within the surgical field, thereby supporting surgeons' experiences and cognitive skills. Preserving and utilising nerves as c...
Simulators are widely used in medical education, but objective and automatic assessment is not feasible with low-fidelity simulators, which can be solved with artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR) solutions. The effectiveness of a cus...

PURPOSE: Augmented reality guidance in laparoscopic liver resection requires the registration of a preoperative 3D model to the intraoperative 2D image. However, 3D-2D liver registration poses challenges owing to the liver's flexibility, particularly...
PURPOSE: Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) is a difficult procedure for early career surgeons. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based surgical step recognition is crucial for establishing context-aware computer-aided surgery systems. In this study, w...
BACKGROUND: Iatrogenic ureteral injury is a serious complication of abdominopelvic surgery. Identifying the ureters intraoperatively is essential to avoid iatrogenic ureteral injury. We developed a model that may minimize this complication.
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (LPD) is one of the most challenging operations and has a long learning curve. Artificial intelligence (AI) automated surgical phase recognition in intraoperative videos has many potential applications i...
Partially automated robotic systems, such as camera holders, represent a pivotal step towards enhancing efficiency and precision in surgical procedures. Therefore, this paper introduces an approach for real-time tool localization in laparoscopy surge...
Minimally invasive surgery is safe and effective in colorectal cancer. Conversion to open surgery may be associated with adverse effects on treatment outcomes. This study aimed to assess risk factors of conversion from minimally invasive to open cole...
BACKGROUND: The primary surgical approach for removing adrenal masses is minimally invasive adrenalectomy. Recognition of anatomical landmarks during surgery is critical for minimizing complications. Artificial intelligence-based tools can be utilize...
