INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Sacrocolpopexy is the most durable surgical procedure for the treatment of symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse (Maher et al. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2013;(4):CD004014). The single port robotic platform has recently been...
Robotic colorectal surgery allows for better ergonomics, superior retraction, and fine movements in the narrow anatomy of the pelvis. Recent years have seen the uptake of robotic surgery in all pelvic surgeries specifically in low rectal malignancies...
OBJECTIVES: The main purpose of this study was to compare the surgical strategy and clinical outcomes of single-position robotic assisted laparoscopic anterograde bilateral inguinal lymphadenectomy for penile cancer.
The majority of patients with benign or malignant biliary obstruction require surgical treatment with a bilio-enteric anastomosis. This requires fine dissection and advanced suturing. Robotic surgery may overcome some major limitations of conventiona...
OBJECTIVE: Recent reports in both cervical and endometrial cancer suggest that minimally invasive surgery (MIS) had an unanticipated negative impact on long-term clinical outcomes, including recurrence and death. Given increasing use of robotic surge...
INTRODUCTION: The best surgical technique for rectal cancer invading the prostate remains controversial. Rectal resection with en bloc prostatectomy using a standard retropubic approach is an option but has disadvantages. We report a new surgical pro...
