Providing treatment sensitivity stratification at the time of cancer diagnosis allows better allocation of patients to alternative treatment options. Despite many clinical and biological risk markers having been associated with variable survival in c...
We performed test clamp procedure in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) to prevent massive bleeding during tumor resection and to omit dissection of non-feeding arteries around the tumor. We subsequently analyzed the safety and usefulness of t...
In the mid- to late-1990s the cardiac surgery community began to apply limited incisions in mitral valve surgery. Ministernotomies and right-sided minithoracotomies were placed instead of the classic midline sternotomy. Adjunct technology such as vid...

BACKGROUND: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a critical medical condition that causes numerous impairments leading to accompanying disability. Robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) offers many advantages, including the capability to increase the intensity...
OBJECTIVE: Prediction of amputation wound healing is challenging due to the multifactorial nature of critical limb ischemia and lack of objective assessment tools. Up to one-third of amputations require revision to a more proximal level within 1 year...
Thoracic sympathectomy to treat palmar hyperhidrosis (PH) has widely been performed. Many patients regret the surgery due to compensatory hyperhidrosis (CH), gustatory hyperhidrosis, arrhythmia, hypertension, gastrointestinal disturbances, and emotio...
Comparative outcome studies investigating internal Double-J (DJ) and externalized stents have primarily been performed for open and laparoscopic pyeloplasty, with a paucity of literature surrounding outcomes in robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplast...
Although single-port robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (SP-RARP) is considered a safe and feasible approach for radical prostatectomy, the comparative performance of the SP robot with earlier models, including da Vinci Xi or Si, is elusive. This ...
Increasing recognition of anatomical obstruction has resulted in a large variety of sleep surgeries to improve anatomic collapse of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the prediction of whether sleep surgery will have successful outcome is very importa...
OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to determine the dose-response relation between epileptiform activity burden and outcomes in acutely ill patients.
