OBJECTIVE: Literature suggests access to robotic surgery varies by race and payer status. We seek to investigate whether disparities exist in robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery among the pediatric urology population at our tertiary academic medical ...
Robot-assisted simple prostatectomy represents a solid treatment option for benign prostatic obstruction in patients with large prostate glands. This procedure offers multiple attractive features that make it a strong competitor against endoscopic en...
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Sacrocolpopexy is the most durable surgical procedure for the treatment of symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse (Maher et al. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2013;(4):CD004014). The single port robotic platform has recently been...
BACKGROUND: Robotic-assisted surgeries have gradually become the standard of care for many procedures, especially in the field of urology. Despite the widespread use of robotic assistance in surgeries, data on its postoperative complications are extr...
Robotic colorectal surgery allows for better ergonomics, superior retraction, and fine movements in the narrow anatomy of the pelvis. Recent years have seen the uptake of robotic surgery in all pelvic surgeries specifically in low rectal malignancies...
OBJECTIVES: The main purpose of this study was to compare the surgical strategy and clinical outcomes of single-position robotic assisted laparoscopic anterograde bilateral inguinal lymphadenectomy for penile cancer.
Robots with the ability to actively acquire power from surroundings will be greatly beneficial for long-term autonomy and to survive in uncertain environments. In this work, a scenario is presented where a robot has limited energy, and the only way t...
Robotic surgery has become widely used in the field of urology. We experienced concurrent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for the complex cases of synchronous primary cancers. Concurrent RARP ...
Currently, robotic-assisted coronary artery bypass grafting (RACABG) is a feasible choice for myocardial revascularization. Acceptable outcomes have been reported for RACABG with single target vessels; however, the long-term benefits of multivessel R...
INTRODUCTION: With the advancement of robotic surgery, some thoracic surgeons have been slow to adopt to this new operative approach, in part because they are un-scrubbed and away from the patient while operating. Aiming to allay surgeon concerns of ...
