Multiport robots are now widely used for total gastrectomy for gastric cancer, while there is almost a void of research on whether single-port (SP) robots can be used for total gastrectomy. Here, we report a case of a 75-year-old female patient who w...
INTRODUCTION: To investigate the impact of prostatic shape observed on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on the difficulty of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).
INTRODUCTION: The number of facilities adopting intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) using robots instead of extracorporeal urinary diversion (ECUD) is increasing. However, guidance on how to introduce robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) + IC...
Collaborative robots (cobots) can be employed in close proximity to human workers without safety fences. The operation mode Power and Force Limiting requires that cobots not exceed the biomechanical limits of ISO/TS 15066 to ensure protection against...
In February 2021 Medtronic (Minneapolis, MN) launched the HUGO™ Robot-Assisted Surgery (RAS) System in the global market. The aim of the current study is to describe the first case series and the optimal setup of robot-assisted pyeloplasty procedure...
To describe a single institution's experience with single-port robotic adrenalectomy (SP-RA) and report perioperative outcomes. This is a retrospective, single-center study of adult patients who underwent SP-RA between January 2019 and April 2022 b...
Nutcracker phenomenon is the compression of the left renal vein between the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the abdominal aorta. Nutcracker syndrome refers to the presence of nutcracker phenomenon with symptoms. Between 2016 and 2022, we perfor...
BACKGROUND: Evidence for the routine use of robotic technology and its impact on short-term outcomes in colon cancer surgery is lacking. The aim of this study was to compare the surgically induced systemic stress response and clinical and patient-rep...
BACKGROUND: In prostate cancer, histological cribriform patterns are categorized as Gleason pattern 4, and recent studies have indicated that their size and percentage are associated with the risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR). However, these studi...
This paper presents a unified model for combining beamforming and blind source separation (BSS). The validity of the model's assumptions is confirmed by recovering target speech information in noise accurately using Oracle information. Using real sta...
