OBJECTIVE: To determine if natural language processing (NLP) with machine learning of unstructured full text documents (a preoperative CT scan) improves the ability to predict postoperative complication and hospital readmission among women with ovari...
One of the most important steps of the partial nephrectomy (PN) is hemostatic control of tumor bed which also effects the warm ischemia time (WIT). Argon beam coagulation (ABC) for decades is a well-known method for surface controls during major open...
The objective of the study was to evaluate the risk of bleeding complications in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) while taking antiplatelet (AP) and/or anticoagulant (AC) agents. We analyzed the data of 334 patients und...
