Hinotori Surgical Robot System, a novel robot-assisted surgical platform: Preclinical and clinical evaluation.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the hinotoriā„¢ Surgical Robot System in preclinical and clinical studies.

Free-hand, transrectal ultrasound-guided hydrodissection of the retroprostatic space during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: Impact on the learning curve.

Urologic oncology
BACKGROUND: Aim of the current study is to describe our technique of hydrodissection (HD) of the retroprostatic space (RPS) performed between the Denonvillier's fascia (DF) and prostatic capsule (PC) and to evaluate its impact on the outcomes of nerv...

The Surgical Learning Curve for Biochemical Recurrence After Robot-assisted Radical Prostatectomy.

European urology oncology
BACKGROUND: Improved cancer control with increasing surgical experience-the learning curve-was demonstrated for open and laparoscopic prostatectomy. In a prior single-center study, we found that this might not be the case for robot-assisted radical p...

The Effect of Salvage Radiation Therapy on Survival, Functional Outcomes, and Quality of Life in Men with Persistent Prostate-specific Antigen After Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: Which Patient Benefits More?

Practical radiation oncology
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of salvage radiation therapy (sRT) on survival, functional outcomes, and quality of life in men with persistent prostate-specific antigen (PSA >0.1 ng/mL) after a robot-assisted radical prosta...

The 'prostate-muscle index': a simple pelvic cavity measurement predicting estimated blood loss and console time in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Scientific reports
This study was to show the impact of 'prostate-muscle index (PMI)', which we developed as a novel pelvic cavity measurement, in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). We defined PMI as the 'distance between the inner edge of...

Development and clinical applicability of MRI-based 3D prostate models in the planning of nerve-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Journal of robotic surgery
The interpretation of conventional MRI may be limited by the two-dimensional presentation of the images. To develop patient-specific MRI prostate-based virtual and three-dimensional (3D)-printed models. To assess the association between 3D imaging an...

The impact of 3D models on positive surgical margins after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

World journal of urology
PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of 3D models on positive surgical margin rate (PSM) rate in patients who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) compared to a no-3D control group. Secondarily, we evaluated the postoperative functional and...

The key role of levator ani thickness for early urinary continence recovery in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: A multi-institutional study.

Neurourology and urodynamics
BACKGROUND: Urinary continence (UC) recovery dramatically affects quality of life after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Membranous urethral length (MUL) has been the most studied anatomical variable associated with UC recovery.

Challenging cases in high-risk prostate cancer patients treated with Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

World journal of urology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between enlarged prostate, bulky median lobe (BML) or prior benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) surgery and perioperative functional, and oncological outcomes in high-risk (HR) prostate cancer (PCa) patients tre...
