BACKGROUND: Ureteral injury and vaginal fistula are common complications after surgical treatment and radiotherapy of gynecological tumor. Ureteral injury in duplex system is more challenging and rarely reported. OBJECTIVE: We report our surgical tec...
Minimally invasive mitral valve surgery can be performed with or without robotic assistance. In this issue of the journal, Zheng et al. compare between these two approaches in a propensity-matched study over a 5-year period and show that the two tech...
In order to assist patients with finger rehabilitation training and grasping objects, we propose a new type of soft rehabilitation gloves (SRGs), which has both flexion/extension and abduction/adduction movement function for every finger. This paper ...
