Intestinal duplication is the most common type of alimentary tract duplications in childhood. Laparoscopic-assisted surgery has become the main surgical procedure, but robot-assisted resection has rarely been reported; the aim of this study was to r...

BACKGROUND: Bone regeneration in the greater omentum is a promising strategy in facial skeleton reconstruction. This feasibility-study aims to perform robot-assisted scaffold implantation and second-stage flap raising.
INTRODUCTION: There is lack of evidence on the impact of surgeons' learning curve on postoperative outcomes after open (OKT) or minimally-invasive (robot-assisted) kidney transplantation (RAKT). The aim of the review was to assess the learning curve ...

AIM: Intracorporeal anastomosis has been associated with earlier recovery of postoperative bowel function, shorter length of stay and lower surgical site infection rates. The aim of this work is to describe a step-by-step standardized technique for i...
To analyze operating room (OR) efficiency by evaluating fixed OR times for three common urologic robot-assisted procedures. Over a 24-month period, we prospectively collected intraoperative data for 635 consecutive robot-assisted surgeries. Fixed (...
Complete mesocolic excision (CME) in right-sided colon cancers appears to confer oncological benefits compared to conventional colectomy. Identification of the superior mesenteric vein (SMV) remains challenging. We describe the novel use of intra-ope...
Robot-assisted surgeries allows the surgeons to operate using remote-controlled robotic arms that are more effective in comparison to conventional (open/laparoscopic) surgeries. However, there is substantial lack of evidence on the effectiveness of r...
