OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the quality of recovery in patients who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and to compare the outcomes of the transperitoneal or retroperitoneal approach.
BACKGROUND: Primary robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RA-RPLND) for men with nonseminomatous germ cell tumor (NSGCT) is an alternative to open RPLND for stage I and select stage II patients.
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether a computed tomography (CT) radiomics-based machine learning classifier can predict histopathology of lymph nodes (LNs) after post-chemotherapy LN dissection (pcRPLND) in patients with metastatic non-seminomatous testic...

Adrenalectomy can be performed open, endoscopically or robotically, utilizing a transabdominal or retroperitoneal approach. This chapter describes the relevant anatomy, various approaches and surgical techniques, pre-operative work-up and optimizatio...
BACKGROUND: Distal pancreatectomy with en-bloc celiac axis resection (DP-CAR) for borderline resectable pancreatic body cancer is increasingly being performed [1,2]. For survival benefits, obtaining margin-free resection (R0 resection) is crucial [3]...
