BACKGROUND: We investigated the effect of the extent of pelvic lymph node dissection (LND) on biochemical recurrence (BCR) in patients with prostate cancer (PCa) without lymph node involvement (LNI) treated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (...
Accurately predicting red blood cell (RBC) transfusion requirements in cardiothoracic (CT) surgery could improve blood inventory management and be used as a surrogate marker for assessing hemorrhage risk preoperatively. We developed a machine learnin...
BACKGROUND: Since its introduction, robotic surgery has been utilized in different types of surgeries over various specialties. However, studies done thus far comparing robotic (Rob. IHR) and laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (Lap. IHR) yielded con...
OBJECTIVE: To distinguish benign from malignant cystic renal lesions (CRL) using a contrast-enhanced CT-based radiomics model and a clinical decision algorithm.

Continuity of care (COC) has been shown to possess numerous health benefits for chronic diseases. Specifically, the establishment of its level can facilitate clinical decision-making and enhanced allocation of healthcare resources. However, the use o...
To compare short-term functional and surgical outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in patients ≥ 80 years old and their younger counterparts, we retrospectively analyzed 1234 patients who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy....
BACKGROUND: Although there is extensive literature on robotic total intracorporeal anastomosis (TICA) for right colon resection, left total ICA using the da Vinci Xi robotic platform has only been described in short case series previously. In this st...
BACKGROUND: In this study, an AI osteotomy software was developed to design the presurgical plan of mandibular angle osteotomy, which is followed by the comparison between the software-designed presurgical plan and the traditional manual presurgical ...
