Robotic pyelolithotomy in a solitary pelvic kidney complicated with fulminant Clostridium difficile: a case report.

Journal of medical case reports
BACKGROUND: Robotic-assisted surgeries have gradually become the standard of care for many procedures, especially in the field of urology. Despite the widespread use of robotic assistance in surgeries, data on its postoperative complications are extr...

The robotic learning curve for a newly appointed colorectal surgeon.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robotic colorectal surgery allows for better ergonomics, superior retraction, and fine movements in the narrow anatomy of the pelvis. Recent years have seen the uptake of robotic surgery in all pelvic surgeries specifically in low rectal malignancies...

Single-position robot-assisted versus laparoscopic antegrade bilateral inguinal lymphadenectomy for penile cancer: A retrospective controlled study.

Asian journal of surgery
OBJECTIVES: The main purpose of this study was to compare the surgical strategy and clinical outcomes of single-position robotic assisted laparoscopic anterograde bilateral inguinal lymphadenectomy for penile cancer.

A novel flexible auxiliary single-arm transluminal endoscopic robot facilitates endoscopic submucosal dissection of gastric lesions (with video).

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Using conventional endoscope to perform endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is difficult because of the one-handed operation and blind dissection caused by gravity. Poor visualization of the submucosal plane causes ESD to be associated...

Magnetic bio-hybrid micro actuators.

Nanoscale
Over the past two decades, there has been a growing body of work on wireless devices that can operate on the length scales of biological cells and even smaller. A class of these devices receiving increasing attention are referred to as bio-hybrid act...

Production Task Allocation Decision Based on Cloud Robot Cell-Line.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Cloud manufacturing is a new service-oriented efficient and low-consumption agile manufacturing mode integrating information, manufacturing, Internet of Things, and other technologies. One of the key decisions of production enterprises is production ...

CircuitBot: Learning to survive with robotic circuit drawing.

PloS one
Robots with the ability to actively acquire power from surroundings will be greatly beneficial for long-term autonomy and to survive in uncertain environments. In this work, a scenario is presented where a robot has limited energy, and the only way t...

Reduction of multiple-caregiver assistance through the long-term use of a transfer support robot in a nursing facility.

Assistive technology : the official journal of RESNA
The long-term use of transfer support robots in nursing facilities is an important option for improving the efficiency of care work. The "Resyone" transfer support robot is a combination of an electric care bed and a wheelchair, and the wheelchair ha...

Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy Is Associated with Superior Survival Compared to Open Surgery.

The American surgeon
INTRODUCTION: Minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) has not been associated with a long-term survival advantage compared to open esophagectomy (OE). We investigated survival differences between MIE, including laparoscopic and robotic, and OE.

Concurrent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for patients with synchronous prostate cancer and small renal tumor: A case series of five patients.

Asian journal of endoscopic surgery
Robotic surgery has become widely used in the field of urology. We experienced concurrent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for the complex cases of synchronous primary cancers. Concurrent RARP ...
