INTRODUCTION: Robotic surgery has integrated into the healthcare system despite limited evidence demonstrating its clinical benefit. Our objectives were (i) to describe secular trends and (ii) patient- and system-level determinants of the receipt of ...
Transanal excision of benign lesions, moderately or well-differentiated rectal T1 adenocarcinomas is typically completed via transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) or laparoscopic transanal minimally invasive surgery (TAMIS). Robotic platforms provi...
In this paper, the problem of an APPTMC for manipulators is investigated. During the robot's operation, the error states should be kept within an outlined range to ensure a steady-state and dynamic attitude. Firstly, we propose the modified PPFs. Aft...

BACKGROUND: Robotic surgery (RS) may offer benefits compared with freehand/conventional surgery (FS) in the treatment of patients with spinal disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of RS versus FS in spinal fusion.
PURPOSE: Robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a recently described surgical approach, but comparison with open simple prostatectomy (OSP) lack in the literature. We compared perioperative outcomes of OS...
AIM: The recent development of new surgical robots and network telecommunication technology has opened new avenues for robotic telesurgery. Although a few gastroenterological surgeries have been performed in the telesurgery setting, more technically ...
