INTRODUCTION: Single-site robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (ssRARP) has been successfully applied to treat prostate cancer. This review aims to describe the recent advances of surgical approaches, working accesses and novel robotic platforms in...
Accurate and precise positioning of the acetabular cup remains a prevalent challenge in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Robotic assistance for THA has increased over the past decade due to the potential to improve the accuracy of implant placement. How...
This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) compared with open partial nephrectomy (OPN) in the management of complex renal tumors (defined as RENAL score ≥ 7). We conducted a comprehensive literatur...
BACKGROUND: Diaphragm plication remains the only effective treatment for diaphragm paralysis. Robot-assisted thoracoscopic (RATS) diaphragm plication combines advantages of open and thoracoscopic techniques. We present our experiences focussing on lu...
OBJECTIVE: Manual contouring of cartilage for nasal reconstruction is tedious and time-consuming. The use of a robot could improve the speed and precision of the contouring process. This cadaveric study evaluates the efficiency and accuracy of a robo...
Robotic rehabilitation of the upper limb has demonstrated promising results in terms of the improvement of arm function in post-stroke patients. The current literature suggests that robot-assisted therapy (RAT) is comparable to traditional approaches...
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to compare the perioperative efficacy and safety of da Vinci robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) for treating anterior mediastinal tumors through the subxiphoid and lateral thoracic approaches under t...
