Feature selection through validation and un-censoring of endovascular repair survival data for predicting the risk of re-intervention.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Feature selection (FS) process is essential in the medical area as it reduces the effort and time needed for physicians to measure unnecessary features. Choosing useful variables is a difficult task with the presence of censoring which is...

Superficial Vancomycin Coating of Bone Cement in Orthopedic Revision Surgery: A Safe Technique to Enhance Local Antibiotic Concentrations.

The Journal of arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: The use of antibiotic-loaded cement has become a well-accepted method to develop high local antibiotic concentrations in revision surgery of infected arthroplasty. A new surgical technique has been established to further increase the loca...

Abnormal calcium, 25(OH)vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone after biliopancreatic diversion; correction through elongation of the common tract and reduction of the gastric pouch.

Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
BACKGROUND: Biliopancreatic diversion (BPD) is a surgical technique burdened, in some instances, by clinical evidence of malabsorption and intractable diarrhoea.

Reoperations following Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy: A Decade of Experience.

The Journal of urology
PURPOSE: There is a paucity of data regarding the operative management of complications after robot-assisted radical cystectomy. We reviewed operative management of robot-assisted radical cystectomy specific complications during our 10-year experienc...

Can Robot-Assisted Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty Be Cost-Effective? A Markov Decision Analysis.

The Journal of arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a treatment option for single-compartment knee osteoarthritis. Robotic assistance may improve survival rates of UKA, but the cost-effectiveness of robot-assisted UKA is unknown. The purpose of t...

Robotic Mitral Valve Repair for Simple and Complex Degenerative Disease: Midterm Clinical and Echocardiographic Quality Outcomes.

Circulation
BACKGROUND: Severe primary (degenerative) mitral regurgitation (MR) is repaired with durable results when simple single-scallop disease is addressed. The midterm quality outcomes of minimally invasive repair for complex disease are unknown, however.

Robotically Assisted Single Anastomosis Duodenoileal Bypass after Previous Sleeve Gastrectomy Implementing High Valuable Technology for Complex Procedures.

Journal of obesity
Staged bariatric procedures in high risk patients are a common used strategy for morbid obese patients nowadays. After previous sleeve gastrectomy, surgical treatments in order to complete weight loss or comorbidities improvements or resolutions are ...

The learning curve in robotic distal pancreatectomy.

Updates in surgery
No data are available on the learning curve in robotic distal pancreatectomy (RADP). The learning curve in RADP was assessed in 55 consecutive patients using the cumulative sum method, based on operative time. Data were extracted from a prospectively...

Short-term results after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy compared to open radical prostatectomy.

European urology
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy has become a widespread technique despite a lack of randomised trials showing its superiority over open radical prostatectomy.
