PURPOSE: Automatic robotic platforms for robot-aided spinal surgery are mostly employed for drilling the pedicle screw path and do not adapt the tool rotational speed depending on the variation of the bone density. This feature is highly desirable in...
AIM: Although many reports have shown that Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) is effective for postoperative urinary continence, the postoperative voiding status and sexual function associated with this technique have not ...
BACKGROUND: For medical institutions without robotic equipment, it remains uncertain whether laparoscopic radical nephroureterectomy (LNU) can achieve results similar to those of robotic surgery for the treatment of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (...
This study explored the risk factors and established a prediction model for intraoperative hypothermia (IOH) in patients undergoing robotic surgery. We conducted a retrospective survey of patients undergoing elective robotic surgery at the China-Japa...
In this article, we focus on the important role of robot-assisted coronary surgery by reporting the successful case of a morbidly obese male (body mass index = 58 kg/m) who presented to our center with severe coronary disease. A 54-year-old morbidly ...

PURPOSE: The application of robotics in the field of minimally invasive surgery solves some shortcomings of traditional minimally invasive surgery. Preoperative planning is an important prerequisite for the successful completion of robot-assisted sur...
Penile shortening is a recognized but neglected side effect of prostate cancer treatment. In this study we explore the effect of maximal urethral length preservation (MULP) technique on penile length preservation after robot assisted laparoscopic pro...
