: Robotic surgery has been widely adopted in general surgery worldwide but access to this technology is still limited to a few hospitals. With the recent introduction of new robotic platforms, several studies reported the feasibility of different sur...
BACKGROUND: Robotic donor nephrectomy (RDN) has emerged as a safe alternate to laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN), offering improved visualization, instrument dexterity and ergonomics. There is still concern about how to safely transition from LDN ...

The purpose of this article is to evaluate the security and effectiveness of subxiphoid and subcostal robot-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy (S-RATT) and compare it with subxiphoid and subcostal video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy (S-VATT) in t...
Despite the substantial progress achieved in the development and integration of augmented reality (AR) in surgical robotic and autonomous systems (RAS), the center of focus in most devices remains on improving end-effector dexterity and precision, as...
Robot-assisted laparoscopy (RALP), conventional laparoscopy (LP), and balloon dilation (BD) have all been identified as common treatments for benign ureteral stricture (BUS). The purpose of the research would be to compare the safety and efficacy di...
Laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer, while in some respects equivalent or even preferable to open surgery, is challenged in specific conditions where the tumor is located in the middle and lower third of the rectum. Robotic surgery equipped with a...

In this paper, an adaptive prescribed settling time periodic event-triggered control (APST-PETC) is investigated for uncertain robotic manipulators with state constraints. In order to economize network bandwidth occupancy and reduce computational bur...
BACKGROUND: When introducing new equipment like robotic surgical systems, it is essential to ensure that surgeons have the basic skills before operating on patients. The objective was to investigate the validity evidence for a competency-based test f...
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the oncological and perioperative outcomes from a large, single-centre, robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) cohort performed with intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD).
INTRODUCTION: With the widespread adoption of minimally invasive surgery, there is a growing need for surgical residents to be trained by a procedure-specific curriculum. This study aimed to evaluate the technical performance and feedback of surgical...
