Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is increasingly being used for the complex surgical management of renal masses. The comparison of RAPN with open partial nephrectomy (OPN) has not yet led to a unified conclusion with regard to perioperative ...
BACKGROUND: Robotic donor nephrectomy (RDN) has emerged as a safe alternate to laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN), offering improved visualization, instrument dexterity and ergonomics. There is still concern about how to safely transition from LDN ...

PURPOSE: Semantic segmentation in surgical videos has applications in intra-operative guidance, post-operative analytics and surgical education. Models need to provide accurate predictions since temporally inconsistent identification of anatomy can h...
OBJECTIVE: To develop a 3D scoring system of tumor anatomy and intrarenal relationship for assessing surgical complexity and outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN).
OBJECTIVE: To perform a systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA) to determine the advantages and disadvantages of open (OPN), laparoscopic (LPN), and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) with particular attention to intraoperative, imme...
BACKGROUND: There is no evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and open partial nephrectomy (OPN).
INTRODUCTION: Highly complex renal masses pose a challenge to urologic surgeons' ability to perform robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN). Given the increased utilization of the robotic approach for small renal masses, we sought to characterize the outco...
