OBJECTIVES: Recent studies showed that robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) represents an oncologically safe procedure in patients with prostate cancer (PCa), where the rate of positive surgical margins (PSMs) might be lower in patients treate...
BACKGROUND: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement requires adenosine injection. However, adenosine can induce conductive and rhythmic complications, or be contraindicated in some patients. Contrast-induced hyperemia could provide a simple first-l...
