OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of palpable prostate tumors on digital rectal exam (DRE) on the disease progression of prostate cancer (PCa) treated with RARP surgery in a tertiary referral center.
Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with previous holmium laser enucleation of the prostate is challenging, and few studies have analyzed its perioperative, functional, and oncological outcomes. Here we retrospectively evaluated 298 robot-assisted r...
BACKGROUND: Prostatic utricle (PU) with normal external genitalia is an uncommon congenital anomaly. About 14% develop epididymitis. This rare presentation should warn involvement of the ejaculatory ducts. Minimally invasive robot-assisted utricle re...
OBJECTIVE: To develop a convolutional neural network to recognize the seminal vesicle and vas deferens (SV-VD) in the posterior approach of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and assess the performance of the convolutional neural network mod...
In candidates to robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for locally advanced (iT3) prostate cancer on preoperative MRI, the performance of MRI for local staging is demonstrably suboptimal, and currently no prediction tools that might help surgeo...

PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare the long-term oncological outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) vs. open radical prostatectomy (ORP) in pathologically proven prostate cancer with seminal vesicle invasion (SVI).
