[Renal graft survival in patients transplanted from organs of deceased donors].

Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social
BACKGROUND: In Mexico, out of the total number of transplants it was reported, in 2014, a frequency of 29% of deceased donor renal transplantation (DDRT). The use of kidneys from deceased elderly donors is increasing over the years. Currently, some a...

A machine learning approach for predictive models of adverse events following spine surgery.

The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society
BACKGROUND: Rates of adverse events following spine surgery vary widely by patient-, diagnosis-, and procedure-related factors. It is critical to understand the expected rates of complications and to be able to implement targeted efforts at limiting ...

Does transanal total mesorectal excision of rectal cancer improve histopathology metrics and/or complication rates? A meta-analysis.

Surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine whether transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) improves histopathology metrics and/or complication rates when compared to robotic total mesorectal excision (R-TME) of resectable rectal c...

Comparison of robot-assisted modified radical neck dissection using a bilateral axillary breast approach with a conventional open procedure after propensity score matching.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: There is ongoing debate about whether or not robot-assisted thyroidectomy is appropriate for modified radical neck dissection (MRND). The purpose of this study was to compare the surgical outcomes of robot-assisted MRND with those of a co...

Improving Outcomes Defending Patient Safety: The Learning Journey in Robotic Liver Resections.

BioMed research international
BACKGROUND: While laparoscopy is currently adopted for hepatic resections, robotic approaches to the liver have not gained wide acceptance. We decided to analyze the learning curve in the field of robotic liver surgery comparing short-term outcomes b...
