PURPOSE: To investigate the feasibility of continuing aspirin therapy in patients with renal tumours undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.
The aim of this study was to compare the perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent single-port (SP) robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) (SP-RARP) with those who underwent multiport (MP) RARP (MP-RARP). Data on 40 consecutive patients...

Robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for completely endophytic renal tumors is challenging because of the tumor complexity. The enucleation technique is an ideal resection method to maximally preserve the renal parenchyma. In the p...
BACKGROUND: Due to the non-randomized nature of real-world data, prognostic factors need to be balanced, which is often done by propensity scores (PSs). This study aimed to investigate whether autoencoders, which are unsupervised deep learning archit...

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...
OBJECTIVES: Cancer has been proposed as a cardiovascular risk factor. We aimed to assess the cardiovascular risk profile and coronary angiography (CA) findings of cancer patients and compare them to those of patients without cancer.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the positive surgical margin rates and locations in radical prostatectomy among three surgical approaches, including open radical prostatectomy, laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
