PURPOSE: To describe the surgical techniques and to analyse the outcomes of single-port robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (SP RASP) procedure for the surgical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
BACKGROUND: Surgical management of large prostatic adenomas can be performed via open, endoscopic, or robotic approaches. A low-profile single-port (SP) robot was built to work in confined areas (ie, the bladder) and regionalize surgery.

BACKGROUND: Robot-Assisted Simple Prostatectomy (RASP) has emerged as a promising alternative in the treatment of benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). However, there is currently a lack of comparative studies evaluating different robotic platforms for...
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to investigate and compare clinical safety and efficiency of Thulium laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuLEP) and robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) for the treatment of large gland benign prostatic h...
Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with previous holmium laser enucleation of the prostate is challenging, and few studies have analyzed its perioperative, functional, and oncological outcomes. Here we retrospectively evaluated 298 robot-assisted r...
We compared outcomes of robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) in patients with and without a history of prior prostate surgery for management of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We retrospectively reviewed our multi-institutiona...
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...
OBJECTIVE: To report the technique and preliminary results for extraperitoneal robot-assisted laparoscopic YV-plasty (RAYV) for refractory bladder neck stenosis (BNS) and vesicoureteral anastomosis stenosis (VUAS).
Simple prostatectomy is indicated in patients with enlarged glands (>80 ) who present with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) attributed to benign prostatic hyperplasia. Salvage robotic simple prostatectomy (SSP) is defined as simple prostatectomy ...

Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) is routinely included in the prostate MRI protocol for a long time; its role has been questioned. It provides rich spatial and temporal information. However, the contained information cannot be fully extracted ...
