Learning Curve of Robot-Assisted Lymph Node Dissection of the Left Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve: A Retrospective Study of 417 Patients.

Annals of surgical oncology
OBJECTIVE: Left recurrent laryngeal nerve (no.106recL) lymph node dissection is a challenging procedure, and robotic-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) may have some advantages. This study aimed to determine the learning curve of no.10...

Robotic versus open approach in total gastrectomy for gastric cancer: a comparative single-center study of perioperative outcomes.

Journal of robotic surgery
The robotic approach to gastric cancer has been gaining interest in recent years; however, its benefit over the open procedure in total gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy is still controversial. The aims of the study were to compare postoperative mo...

Robot-assisted lateral pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with advanced rectal cancer: a single-center experience of 65 cases.

Journal of robotic surgery
The treatment of lateral pelvic lymph node (LPLN) metastasis of rectal cancer has evolved because of technical difficulties from open surgery to laparoscopy and, recently, robot-assisted surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the technical feasibility...

Robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymph node dissection: a systematic review of perioperative outcomes.

BJU international
OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety and feasibility of robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (R-RPLND) and to compare the perioperative outcomes of R-RPLND with open RPLND (O-RPLND), as RPLND forms an integral part of the management of tes...

Development and External Validation of a Machine Learning Model for Prediction of Lymph Node Metastasis in Patients with Prostate Cancer.

European urology oncology
BACKGROUND: Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) is the gold standard for diagnosis of lymph node involvement (LNI) in patients with prostate cancer. The Roach formula, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) calculator, and Briganti 2012 nomog...

Initial perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy using a confronting setting.

Surgery today
PURPOSE: Most robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) is performed from the vertical view. This study evaluates the initial outcomes of our novel confronting RATS technique, in which the patient was viewed horizontally, as in open thoracotomy.

Initial experience with modified en bloc robot-assisted minimally invasive oesophagectomy for thoracic oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The feasibility and safety of en bloc robot-assisted minimally invasive oesophagectomy (RAMIE) need to be verified.

Safety and Feasibility of Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy (RAMIE) with Three-Field Lymphadenectomy and Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy in Patients with Resectable Esophageal Cancer and Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: In the West, patients with cervical lymph node metastasis of resectable esophageal cancer at diagnosis are generally precluded from curative treatment. This study prospectively explored the safety and feasibility of neoadjuvant chemoradio...

Robotic pelvic side-wall lymph node dissection for rectal cancer: a systematic review of videos and application of the IDEAL 2A framework.

Journal of robotic surgery
Lateral pelvic lymph node dissection (LPLND) in rectal cancer has gained increasing traction worldwide. Robotic LPLND is an emerging technique. Utilising the IDEAL (idea, development, exploration, assessment and long-term follow-up) framework for sur...
