Robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) is a technically challenging procedure and there has been limited reporting of its learning curve (LC), mostly by a single surgical working group. The aim of the current study was to perform an independen...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to report the overall results and the learning curve (LC) in salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (sRARP) patients, in terms of morbidity, oncological and functional outcomes in a single surgeon tertiary-...
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Quick optimization and mastery of a new technique is an important part of procedural medicine, especially in the field of minimally invasive surgery. Complex surgeries such as robotic pancreaticoduodenectomies (RPD) and robotic ...

PURPOSE: The application of robotics in the operating theatre for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains controversial. As with all new technology, the introduction of new systems is associated with a learning curve and potentially associated with ext...
INTRODUCTION: The learning curve associated with robotic pancreatoduodenectomy (RPD) is a hurdle for new programs to achieve optimal results. Since early analysis, robotic training has recently expanded, and the RPD approach has been refined. The pur...
BACKGROUND: There is paucity of data about functional outcomes of Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder (ICON), and the impact of learning curve (LC) on those outcomes remains to be addressed. The aim of t...
Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) relies heavily on the bedside assistant (BA). Currently, the relationship between BA experience and surgical outcomes in robotic surgery is not clear. We examined whether bedside assistant expe...
BACKGROUND: Common colorectal procedures that require access to all quadrants of the abdomen are subtotal colectomy (STC) and total proctocolectomy (TPC). These are frequently performed with a surgical robot, but multiquadrant operations have unique ...
