BACKGROUND: Robots offer an alternative, potentially advantageous method of providing repetitive, high-dosage, and high-intensity training to address the gait impairments caused by stroke. In this study, we compared the effects of the Stride Manageme...
BACKGROUND: The role of robotic instruments in mitral valve (MV) surgery continues to evolve. The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, efficacy, and scope of MV surgery using a lateral endoscopic approach with robotics (LEAR) technique.
INTRODUCTION: Surgical management of duplex renal anomaly (DRA) is complex because of individual anatomic variation, competing priorities of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and ureteral obstruction present in the same child, the varied differential funct...
Robotic system has been increasingly used in pancreatectomy. However, the effectiveness of this method remains uncertain. This study compared the surgical outcomes between robot-assisted laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy and conventional laparoscopi...
