OBJECTIVES: Postoperative inguinal hernia (IH) is one of the most common complications of radical prostatectomy (RP) including robot-assisted RP (RARP). However, a procedure to prevent IH after RARP has not been established. We investigated the impac...
PURPOSE: Hugo™ RAS system is one of the most promising new robotic platforms introduced in the field of urology. To date, no data have been provided on robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) performed with Hugo™ RAS system. The aim of the study is...
PURPOSE: Functional outcomes of robot-assisted (RA) radical cystectomy (RC) with intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder (i-ON) have been poorly investigated. The study aimed to report functional outcomes of a prospective randomized controlled trial (RC...
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have evaluated the learning curve to achieve competency in robotic-assisted coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) but have not identified thresholds for mastery. Robotic-assisted CABG is a minimally invasive alternative ...
