BACKGROUND: Cancer development in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) has elicited recent interest. We investigated the surgical and functional outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in AYAs.
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted sleeve gastrectomy (RSG) is an increasingly common approach to sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Staple line reinforcement (SLR) is well-discussed in laparoscopic SG literature, but not RSG- likely due to the absence of dedicated ro...

Robust estimation of exposure response analysis relies on correct specification of the model structure with traditional parametric approach. However, the assumptions of the handcrafted model may not always hold or verifiable. Here, we conducted a sim...
PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to compare perioperative outcomes and total and split renal function between laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). Predictive risk factors of preservation of ope...
AIM: To evaluate the impact of the interaortocaval clamping technique for the right renal artery on perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN).
Minimally invasive esophagectomy for esophageal cancer decreases overall complication rate and leads to faster postoperative recovery. Robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy is becoming more common. Its three-dimensional view and wristed ins...
