Querying the capability of the post-HoLEP endoscopic aspect of the membranous urethral mucosa in predicting urinary incontinence: a prospective AI-based analysis.

World journal of urology
INTRODUCTION: Transient stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after holmium laser enucleation of prostate (HoLEP) is commonly linked to intraoperative injury of the external urethral sphincter (EUS). We assessed the reliability of the post-HoLEP endoscop...

Perioperative Outcome of Thulium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate versus Robot-Assisted Simple Prostatectomy: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis.

Urologia internationalis
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to investigate and compare clinical safety and efficiency of Thulium laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuLEP) and robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) for the treatment of large gland benign prostatic h...

Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy following holmium laser enucleation of the prostate: perioperative, functional, and oncological outcomes.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with previous holmium laser enucleation of the prostate is challenging, and few studies have analyzed its perioperative, functional, and oncological outcomes. Here we retrospectively evaluated 298 robot-assisted r...

Robotic Puboprostatic Fistula Repair with Holmium Laser Pubic Debridement.

Urology
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Urosymphyseal fistula (UF) with osteomyelitis most commonly occurs as a result of prostate cancer and benign prostate hyperplasia therapy. UF presentation typically includes debilitating pelvic pain exacerbated with ambula...

First-in-man application of a cold ablation robot guided laser osteotome in midface osteotomies.

Journal of cranio-maxillo-facial surgery : official publication of the European Association for Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery
The aim of the study was to assess the clinical applicability of robot guided laser osteotomy for clinical application. This is the initial report on 14 consecutive patients requiring an orthognathic procedure with a midface osteotomy (no restriction...

Comparing the Bone Healing After Cold Ablation Robot-Guided Er:YAG Laser Osteotomy and Piezoelectric Osteotomy-A Pilot Study in a Minipig Mandible.

Lasers in surgery and medicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To take major advantage of erbium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Er:YAG) lasers in osteotomy-like freedom of cutting geometries and high accuracy-the integration and miniaturization of the robot, laser, and navigation techn...

High-frequency in laser lithotripsy: do we truly know what it means?

World journal of urology
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: High frequency (HF) in laser lithotripsy lacks a consistent definition, potentially impacting clinical outcomes and patient safety. This review aims to analyze available evidence on the definition of HF.

Treatment of Porphyria Cutanea Tarda Scarring With Combination Laser Treatment and a Pilot Use of Artificial Intelligence to Quantify Laser Results.

Journal of cosmetic dermatology
BACKGROUND: Porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) is the most common subtype of porphyria and results from a deficiency of the enzyme uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase. Even after successful treatment, patients can be left with significant scarring, and there i...
