The aim of this study was to introduce the "ultrathin parenchyma" resection in a robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) via the retroperitoneal approach, and to assess the feasibility, security, and effectiveness of this technique. We collected ...
The management of a ureteral orifice injury occurring during robotic radical prostatectomy (RARP) represents a challenge for urologists. Several techniques have been proposed to treat an intraoperative injury, but intraoperative positioning of a DJ s...
Radical prostatectomy (RP) is the primary and standard treatment for localized prostate cancer. As in many surgical procedures, RP can now be accomplished through minimally invasive methods. RP in a patient with a pre-existing 3-piece inflatable peni...

PURPOSE: Compact master manipulators have inherent advantages, since they can have practical deployment within the general surgical environments easily and bring benefits to surgical training. To assess the advantages of compact master manipulators f...
OBJECTIVES: Surgically treated clinical T1 (cT1) kidney cancer has in general a good prognosis, but there is a risk of upstaging that can potentially jeopardize the oncological outcomes after partial nephrectomy (PN). Aim of this study is to analyze ...
Limited physical access to target organs of patients inside an MRI scanner is a major obstruction to real-time MRI-guided interventions. Traditional teleoperation technologies are incompatible with the MRI environment and although several solutions h...
