To evaluate the efficacy of supine percutaneous renal access by robot-assisted (RA) fluoroscopy and ultrasound (US) guidance in terms of procedural outcomes and surgeon workload. We conducted a multicenter, randomized, controlled benchtop study inv...
Pancreatic tumor enucleation is a procedure that can preserve pancreatic function and is sometimes performed using a minimally invasive approach. Recently, a single-port robotic platform called da Vinci SP has been developed. However, the technical d...
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive sub-lobectomy is sufficient in treating small early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, comparison of the feasibility and oncologic efficacy between robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) and video-a...
