BACKGROUND: Pediatric minimally invasive surgery requires advanced technical skills. Off-the-job training (OJT), especially when using disease-specific models, is an effective method of acquiring surgical skills. To achieve effective OJT, it is neces...
BACKGROUND: To summarize the anesthesia management experience for pediatric day-case patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) ligation under robot-assisted thoracoscopy and explore the key points of anesthesia management for this procedure.
PURPOSE: To develop deep learning models using thoracoscopic images to identify visceral pleural invasion (VPI) in patients with clinical stage I lung adenocarcinoma, and to verify if these models can be applied clinically.
BACKGROUND: Facing the 0.7-22% incidence rate of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus (IVCTT), there are usually no obvious symptoms and signs when the tumor thrombus completely blocks the IVCTT in the early stage.1.J...
An otherwise well 28-month-old girl presented with fever/left thigh pain. Computed tomography identified a 7 cm right posterior mediastinal tumor extending to the paravertebral and intercostal spaces with multiple bone and bone marrow metastases on b...
The application of robot-assisted thoracoscopy to cardiac surgery affords an opportunity to leverage the exceptional intraoperative exposure, visualization, and dexterity of the robotic platform. Here, we report the case of a 72-year-old woman who pr...
