Robots are increasingly used in minimally invasive surgery. We evaluated the clinical benefits of robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) in comparison with the conventional open esophageal surgery. From 2012 to 2016, 371 patients wit...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Radical cystectomy is the definitive surgical treatment for aggressive bladder cancer. The robotic platform offers a new approach to radical cystectomy, but the benefits are unclear. This review examines the latest evidence, with a...
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) is a relatively new minimally invasive procedure for surgical treatment to manage symptomatic, therapy-refractory benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) in prostate volumes >80 cm. Thus, postoperati...
Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used to improve diagnosis and prognostication for acute and chronic kidney diseases. Studies published in 2019 relied on a variety of available data sources towards this objective, including electronic he...
