Automatic segmentation of rectal tumor on diffusion-weighted images by deep learning with U-Net.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Manual delineation of a rectal tumor on a volumetric image is time-consuming and subjective. Deep learning has been used to segment rectal tumors automatically on T2-weighted images, but automatic segmentation on diffusion-weighted imaging i...

A nationwide comparison of short-term outcomes after transanal, open, laparoscopic, and robot-assisted total mesorectal excision.

Colorectal disease : the official journal of the Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland
AIM: Laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery has several limitations. Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) can potentially overcome these limitations. The aim of this study was to compare the rates of non-radical surgery and anastomotic leakage aft...

A Transabdominal Robotic Purse-String Suture Technique for Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) is a novel technique that overcomes the problem of access to the deep pelvis during radical surgery for mid-rectal and lower rectal cancer. Although TaTME has several important steps, the creation of the d...

Robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal Mainz Ⅱ rectosigmoid pouch for muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: To report the surgical techniques and results of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal Mainz Ⅱ rectosigmoid pouch at our centre.

SP rTaTME: initial clinical experience with single-port robotic transanal total mesorectal excision (SP rTaTME).

Techniques in coloproctology
BACKGROUND: The technical difficulty and steep learning curve of transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) has limited widespread adoption. The single-port (SP) daVinci robot is designed to facilitate single-incision and natural-orifice translumina...

Robot-assisted anorectal pull-through for anorectal malformations with rectourethral and rectovesical fistula: feasibility and short-term outcome.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Multiple structures in the anorectal area are closely related to defecation, voiding and sexual function. Although laparoscopic-assisted anorectal pull-through is widely accepted as a minimally invasive surgical technique, controversy sti...

Robotic versus laparoscopic total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer: a meta-analysis of long-term survival and urogenital functional outcomes.

Minerva gastroenterology
INTRODUCTION: Robotic surgical technology has been widely introduced and applied in various fields of surgery. The aim of this study was to analyze long-term oncological and urogenital functional outcomes following laparoscopic/robotic total mesorect...
