BACKGROUND: Prostatic utricle (PU) with normal external genitalia is an uncommon congenital anomaly. About 14% develop epididymitis. This rare presentation should warn involvement of the ejaculatory ducts. Minimally invasive robot-assisted utricle re...
Lipoma is a benign mesenchymal tumour that can develop in any part of the body containing adipose tissue. Very few cases of pelvic lipomas have been reported in the literature. Due to their location and slow growth, pelvic lipomas are often asymptoma...
BACKGROUND: Absorbable hydrogel spacer injected between prostate and rectum is gaining popularity for rectal sparing. The spacer alters patient anatomy and thus requires new auto-contouring models.
: To describe the predictors of cribriform variant status and perineural invasion (PNI) in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) histology. To define the rates of upgrading between biopsy specimens and final histology and their possible predict...
BACKGROUND: Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) has been shown to lead to better outcomes regarding early continence compared to standard anterior RARP (SA-RARP). The goal of this study was to assess the feasibility and saf...

BACKGROUND: no data exist concerning functional and oncological outcomes of Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP), in patients previously treated with trans-urethral resection of the prostate (p-TURP), for benign prostate obs...
PURPOSE: Efforts are ongoing to treat severe benign prostatic hyperplasia as traditional endoscopic treatment options are often difficult to perform and associated with significant complications. This manuscript highlights our initial experience of r...
One in eight men will be affected by prostate cancer (PCa) in their lives. While the current clinical standard prognostic marker for PCa is the Gleason score, it is subject to inter-reviewer variability. This study compares two machine learning metho...

INTRODUCTION: Single-site robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (ssRARP) has been successfully applied to treat prostate cancer. This review aims to describe the recent advances of surgical approaches, working accesses and novel robotic platforms in...
The role of imaging in pretreatment staging and management of prostate cancer (PCa) is constantly evolving. In the last decade, there has been an ever-growing interest in radiomics as an image analysis approach able to extract objective quantitative ...
