OBJECTIVES: No method is available to determine the non-perfused volume (NPV) repeatedly during magnetic resonance-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (MR-HIFU) ablations of uterine fibroids, as repeated acquisition of contrast-enhanced T1-weigh...
Optimal approach for lower anterior resection has been closely debated. The relatively new addition of the robotic approach adds a layer of complexity to this topic. The majority of the literature has compared the possible approaches between two tec...
INTRODUCTION: Deep learning may be able to assist with the prediction of neurosurgical inpatient outcomes. The aims of this study were to investigate deep learning and transfer learning in the prediction of several inpatient outcomes including timing...
To evaluate the differences in baseline chronic kidney disease (CKD) status in correlations between warm ischemic time (WIT) and acute kidney injury (AKI) or acute/chronic renal function change after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). This ...

BACKGROUND: Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is not yet universally accepted due to still limited functional data and some concerns on oncological safety compared to the standard one. We assessed perioperative, pathological...
To compare outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and percutaneous tumor ablation (PTA) for completely endophytic renal masses. Data of patients who underwent RAPN or PTA for treatment of completely endophytic (three points for "E" d...
