Novel Port Placement in Robot-Assisted DIEP Flap Harvest Improves Visibility and Bilateral DIEP Access: Early Controlled Cohort Study.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery
SUMMARY: To minimize donor-site damage, robot-assisted (RA) deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap harvest has been suggested. Current robotic approaches favor port placement, which either does not allow a bilateral DIEP flap harvest through...

A Machine Learning Approach to Identify Previously Unconsidered Causes for Complications in Aesthetic Breast Augmentation.

Aesthetic plastic surgery
INTRODUCTION: Primary breast augmentation is one of the most commonly requested aesthetic procedures. Considering the large number of procedures performed in connection with a high demand, it is crucial to prevent complications. For this reason, find...

Analysis of robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy using the da Vinci SP system.

Journal of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: As patients tend to be diagnosed with breast cancer at an early stage, the demand for better cosmetic outcomes has increased. Several studies revealed that robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (RNSM) shows favorable outcomes. The aim ...

Implementing the Robotic deep inferior epigastric perforator Flap in daily practice: A series of 10 cases.

Journal of plastic, reconstructive & aesthetic surgery : JPRAS
The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is the workhorse in microvascular breast reconstruction. Rectus muscle sacrifice or denervation and inappropriate rectus sheath closure are the main causes of abdominal wall morbidity. Robotic vesse...

Robotic deep inferior epigastric perforator flap harvest in breast reconstruction.

Microsurgery
INTRODUCTION: Reducing donor site morbidity after deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap harvest relies mainly upon maintaining integrity of the anterior rectus sheath fascia. The purpose of this study is to describe our minimally-inv...

Prospective pilot study protocol evaluating the safety and feasibility of robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (RNSM).

BMJ open
INTRODUCTION: Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) can be performed for the treatment of breast cancer and risk reduction, but total mammary glandular excision in NSM can be technically challenging. Minimally invasive robot-assisted NSM (RNSM) has the pot...

Validating machine learning approaches for prediction of donor related complication in microsurgical breast reconstruction: a retrospective cohort study.

Scientific reports
Autologous reconstruction using abdominal flaps remains the most popular method for breast reconstruction worldwide. We aimed to evaluate a prediction model using machine-learning methods and to determine which factors increase abdominal flap donor s...

Residual breast tissue after robot-assisted nipple sparing mastectomy.

Breast (Edinburgh, Scotland)
INTRODUCTION: While the long-term oncologic safety of robot-assisted nipple sparing mastectomy (RNSM) remains to be elucidated, histologically detected residual breast tissue (RBT) can be a surrogate for oncologically sound mastectomy. The objective ...
