Radical cystectomy is the standard method for treatment of muscle-invasive and locally advanced bladder cancer. Several less invasive approaches have been suggested recently, including totally laparoscopic radical cystectomy and robotic cystectomy. H...
BACKGROUND/AIMS: The aim of this study was to report on the feasibility of esophagojejunostomy reconstruction using a robot-sewing technique during a completely robotic total gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to evaluate long-term oncologic outcomes of robotic surgery for rectal cancer compared with laparoscopic surgery at a single institution.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Failed opportunities to reduce morbidity and mortality occur when evidence-based therapies are not fully implemented in clinical practice. We reviewed the recent literature on implementation strategies in the intensive care unit, w...
