A risk grouping algorithm for predicting factors of persistently elevated prostate-specific antigen in patients following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

International journal of clinical practice
OBJECTIVE: After radical prostatectomy, prostate-specific antigen(PSA) value measuring ≥0.1 ng/mL is defined as persistent PSA(pPSA) and in many studies, it was found to be associated with aggressive disease and poor prognosis. Our aim in this study ...

The clinical impact of robot-assisted laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery associated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Asian journal of endoscopic surgery
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery has been performed in various fields, especially in the pelvic cavity. However, little is known about the utility of robot-assisted laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery associated with robot-assisted ra...

Severe intraoperative bleeding predicts the risk of perioperative blood transfusion after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Journal of robotic surgery
To evaluate potential factors associated with the risk of perioperative blood transfusion (PBT) with implications on length of hospital stay (LOHS) and major post-operative complications in patients who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy ...

Functional outcomes rather than complications predict poor health-related quality of life at 6 months after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Journal of robotic surgery
The objective is to evaluate the effect of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP)-related postoperative complications on the 6-month postoperative health-related quality of life (HRQoL). A total of 1008 patients underwent a RARP with or without ...

Preclinical evaluation of a markerless, real-time, augmented reality guidance system for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Intra-operative augmented reality (AR) during surgery can mitigate incomplete cancer removal by overlaying the anatomical boundaries extracted from medical imaging data onto the camera image. In this paper, we present the first such complete...

Clinical characteristics and oncological outcomes in negative multiparametric MRI patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

The Prostate
BACKGROUND: Efforts are ongoing to try and find ways to reduce the number of unnecessary prostate biopsies without missing clinically significant prostate cancers (csPCa). The utility of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) in detecting...

Potential for optimizing the perioperative care in robotic prostatectomy patients by adoption of enhanced recovery after surgery principles.

Journal of robotic surgery
Several benefits have been reported after applying the principles of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) into the perioperative care of patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Nevertheless, there are still barriers. We aim...

Combining weakly and strongly supervised learning improves strong supervision in Gleason pattern classification.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: One challenge to train deep convolutional neural network (CNNs) models with whole slide images (WSIs) is providing the required large number of costly, manually annotated image regions. Strategies to alleviate the scarcity of annotated da...

Extraperitoneal Laparoscopic Versus Transperitoneal Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Approaches for Extended Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection During Radical Prostatectomy.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
We aim to directly compare the feasibility and safety of extended pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) during transperitoneal robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (Tp-RARP) and extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (Ep-LRP). We retros...

Digital Frozen Sections with Fluorescence Confocal Microscopy During Robot-assisted Radical Prostatectomy: Surgical Technique.

European urology
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) involves a tradeoff between oncological control and functional outcomes. Intraoperative control of surgical margins (SMs) may help in ensuring the safety of the dissection. Fluorescence confocal...
