OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether a computed tomography (CT) radiomics-based machine learning classifier can predict histopathology of lymph nodes (LNs) after post-chemotherapy LN dissection (pcRPLND) in patients with metastatic non-seminomatous testic...
PURPOSE: Several guidelines recommend pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) at robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) only when lymph node involvement (LN+) is >2%. Individual surgeon use of PLND is not well-known. We sought to examine variability...
OBJECTIVES: To develop a machine learning (ML)-assisted model to identify candidates for extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) in prostate cancer by integrating clinical, biopsy, and precisely defined magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings...
PURPOSE: Differences exist concerning when and how to perform lymph node dissection (LND) during radical prostatectomy due to lack of high-grade evidence to its safety and efficacy. We aimed to compare readmission rates between limited and extended L...
To investigate by means of a randomized clinical trial the safety of no drain in the pelvic cavity after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with or without extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND). From May to December 2016, 112 conse...
