Outcomes of Extraperitoneal Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy in the Morbidly Obese: A Propensity Score-Matched Study.

Journal of endourology
INTRODUCTION: An increasing number of obese patients (body mass index [BMI] >30 kg/m(2)]) with localized prostate cancer are presenting as candidates for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), which can be carried out using the transperitoneal ...

Robotic single-site cholecystectomy in the obese: outcomes from a single institution.

Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
BACKGROUND: Robotic single-site cholecystectomy (RSSC) has been shown to be a safe alternative to the laparoscopic approach in selected patients. Patient exclusion criteria have prevented RSSC as a surgical option in many obese patients. This study r...

Integrating Machine Learning and Dynamic Digital Follow-up for Enhanced Prediction of Postoperative Complications in Bariatric Surgery.

Obesity surgery
BACKGROUND: Traditional risk models, such as POSSUM and OS-MS, have limited accuracy in predicting complications after bariatric surgery. Machine learning (ML) offers new opportunities for personalized risk assessment by incorporating artificial inte...

[Robot-assisted single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy].

Zhonghua wei chang wai ke za zhi = Chinese journal of gastrointestinal surgery
Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is simpler and has similar efficacy for obesity and obesity-associated metabolic diseases in comparison to biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch. We reported the first ...

The current role of robotics in bariatric surgery.

Minerva surgery
Significant improvements have been made in bariatric surgery for the past two decades. Thus, early and late complication rates decreased significantly. Thanks to its promising results, robotic surgery is finding increasing use in the field of surgery...

Bariatric surgery and hemodialysis: A case report of a patient with less 40 kilograms and without dialysis.

Saudi journal of kidney diseases and transplantation : an official publication of the Saudi Center for Organ Transplantation, Saudi Arabia
Obesity is an important risk factor for chronic kidney disease. Bariatric surgery (BS) may improve long-term kidney outcomes, but there is no agreement regarding the benefit and timing of BS in patients with end-stage renal disease. We present a 46-y...

The Performance of an Artificial Neural Network Model in Predicting the Early Distribution Kinetics of Propofol in Morbidly Obese and Lean Subjects.

Anesthesia and analgesia
BACKGROUND: Induction of anesthesia is a phase characterized by rapid changes in both drug concentration and drug effect. Conventional mammillary compartmental models are limited in their ability to accurately describe the early drug distribution kin...

The Impact of Robotics in Learning Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: a Retrospective Analysis of 214 Laparoscopic and Robotic Procedures : Robotic Vs. Laparoscopic RYGB.

Obesity surgery
BACKGROUND: Proximal Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is commonly used to manage obesity, performed using laparoscopic or robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. As the prevalence of robotic bariatric surgery increases, further data is required to justify...
