Sexual disorders following retroperitoneal pelvic lymph node dissection (RPLND) for testis tumor can affect the quality of life of patients. The aim of the current study was to investigate several different andrological outcomes, which may be influen...
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.

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.
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...
OBJECTIVE: To compare the results of traditional laparoscopy and a simple, single-docking robotic approach for retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND), nephroureterectomy, and bladder cuff excision.
OBJECTIVE: The main aim of our study is to review the till now available literature data on the role of robotic retroperitoneal lymph node dissection in gynaecological cancers by comparing the extraperitoneal versus the transperitoneal approach.
