Learning curve for robotic-assisted surgery for rectal cancer: use of the cumulative sum method.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Few data are available to assess the learning curve for robotic-assisted surgery for rectal cancer. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the learning curve for robotic-assisted surgery for rectal cancer by a surgeon at a single in...

Endoscopic robot-assisted simple enucleation (ERASE) for clinical T1 renal masses: description of the technique and early postoperative results.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Simple enucleation (SE) has proven to be oncologically safe. We describe the surgical steps and report the results of the Endoscopic Robotic-Assisted Simple Enucleation (ERASE) technique.

Perioperative outcomes of robotic partial nephrectomy for intrarenal tumors.

Journal of endourology
INTRODUCTION: Intrarenal tumors pose a unique challenge to surgeons due to the lack of visual cues on the kidney surface. Intraoperative ultrasonography has facilitated the management of these tumors during minimally invasive partial nephrectomy. We ...

Potential advantages of robotic radical gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma in comparison with conventional laparoscopic approach: a single institutional retrospective comparative cohort study.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: We have previously reported that laparoscopic approach improved short-term postoperative courses even for advanced gastric adenocarcinoma, but not morbidity, in comparison with open approach. The objective of this study was to determine t...

Simultaneous development of laparoscopy and robotics provides acceptable perioperative outcomes and shows robotics to have a faster learning curve and to be overall faster in rectal cancer surgery: analysis of novice MIS surgeon learning curves.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopy offers some evidence of benefit compared to open rectal surgery. Robotic rectal surgery is evolving into an accepted approach. The objective was to analyze and compare laparoscopic and robotic rectal surgery learning curves wi...

Modified robotic-assisted thyroidectomy: an initial experience with the retroauricular approach.

The Laryngoscope
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: New approaches for robotic-assisted thyroidectomy, including the retroauricular approach, were recently described. We have modified the established surgical approach for retroauricular robotic thyroidectomy. Herein, we report o...

Optimizing surgical efficiency: predicting case duration of common general surgery procedures using machine learning.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of surgical duration is critical to optimizing use of operating room resources. Currently, cases are scheduled using subjective estimates of length by surgeons, relying heavily on prior experience. This study aims to d...

Prediction of operation time in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) patients: A machine learning approach.

Urologia
PURPOSE: To investigate the factors influencing the length of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) procedures and identify predictive variables for operation time using machine learning models.
