Robot-Assisted Ureteral Reconstruction Using Buccal Mucosa.

Urology
OBJECTIVE: To describe the technique of robotic buccal mucosa graft ureteroplasty as a minimally invasive alternative method of ureteral reconstruction for proximal or multifocal ureteral strictures not amenable to primary anastomosis.

Is peri-operative urethral catheter drainage enough? The case for stentless pediatric robotic pyeloplasty.

Journal of pediatric urology
BACKGROUND: The necessity for urinary diversion with trans-anastomotic ureteral stenting during pyeloplasty is currently under debate. Performing a stentless repair could eliminate stent-related morbidity, including: stent migration, urinary tract in...

Robotic-Assisted Ureteral Re-implantation: A Case Series.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
INTRODUCTION: Minimally invasive surgical techniques are currently used for numerous urologic disorders and generally offer decreased morbidity and equivalent outcomes compared with open surgery. There is a relative paucity of data on robot-assisted ...

Comparing the efficacy and safety between robotic-assisted versus open pyeloplasty in children: a systemic review and meta-analysis.

World journal of urology
OBJECTIVE: This manuscript is mainly to systemically review the published reports that compared the efficacy and safety of robotic-assisted (RP) versus open pyeloplasty (OP) in children with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO).

Beyond the Mirror: Body Dysmorphic Disorder and Emerging Dysmorphias in Aesthetic Surgery.

Clinics in plastic surgery
Driven by social media and artificial intelligence technologies, new dysmorphias increase pressures on body image, often leading patients to pursue repeated cosmetic procedures with persistent dissatisfaction. We examine body dysmorphic disorder and ...

Using ChatGPT to write a literature review on autologous fat grafting.

Journal of plastic, reconstructive & aesthetic surgery : JPRAS
BACKGROUND: ChatGPT is a large language model (LLM) that has been proposed as a scientific writing tool, though its ethical use remains a highly debated topic within the academic community. This article defines the strengths and weaknesses of ChatGPT...

Detection of flap malperfusion after microsurgical tissue reconstruction using hyperspectral imaging and machine learning.

Scientific reports
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has shown significant diagnostic potential for both intra- and postoperative perfusion assessment. The purpose of this study was to combine machine learning and neural networks with HSI to develop a method for detecting fl...

[Transforming joint reconstruction with surgical robotics: from empirical to analytical approaches].

Zhonghua yi xue za zhi
Robotic-assisted joint reconstruction has gradually become a routine procedure in clinical practice. Robots enhance surgical precision, minimize soft tissue damage, and improve clinical outcomes in joint reconstruction. This article will discuss the ...

Human vs Machine: The Future of Decision-making in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.

Aesthetic surgery journal
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence-driven technologies offer transformative potential in plastic surgery, spanning preoperative planning, surgical procedures, and postoperative care, with the promise of improved patient outcomes.
