This case involved a 63-year-old man. He underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for prostate cancer. One year after the operation, he consulted our hospital about left inguinal swelling. Under a diagnosis of a left external inguinal he...
Recurrence risk stratification of patients undergoing primary surgical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an area of active investigation, and several staging systems have been proposed to optimize treatment strategies. However, as many ...
To evaluate the outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in cystic renal tumors. We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent RAPN for either cystic ( = 46) or solid ( = 271) renal tumors at Fujita Health University between 2010 ...
For patients with clinically localized renal masses, positive surgical margins (PSMs) after robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) have been associated with a higher risk of disease recurrence, although some studies have challenged this conclusion. Owing...
Percutaneous thermal ablation is a validated treatment option for small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Steatotic HCC can be reliably detected by magnetic resonance imaging. To determine the clinical relevance of this radiological variant, we include...

OBJECTIVE: The sensitivity of thyroglobulin (Tg) to detect differentiated thyroid cancer recurrence increases with the rise of the thyrotropin level. Since 1998, recombinant human thyrotropin (rhTSH) has been commercially available for this purpose. ...
White light cystoscopy and the concise documentation of pathological findings are standard diagnostic procedures in urology. Additional imaging modalities and technical innovations may support clinicians in the detection of bladder tumors. Modern end...
BACKGROUND: Identifying predictors of positive surgical margins (PSM) and biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP) may assist clinicians in formulating prognosis. Aim of the study was to report the midterm oncologic outcomes, to ...
Positron emission tomography (PET), a functional and dynamic molecular imaging technique, is generally used to reveal tumors' biological behavior. Radiomics allows a high-throughput extraction of multiple features from images with artificial intellig...
Differentiating pseudoprogression from true tumor progression has become a significant challenge in follow-up of diffuse infiltrating gliomas, particularly high grade, which leads to a potential treatment delay for patients with early glioma recurren...
