BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to analyze the learning curve for laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) in our series and review the literature on learning curves for LDP and robotic distal pancreatectomy (RDP).
BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE STUDY: An investigation was made as to whether the preoperative aortic annular diameter affects the durability of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) repair in patients who had undergone concomitant root stabilization with subcommis...
PURPOSE: By integrating intraoperative near infrared fluorescence imaging into a robotic system, surgeons can identify the vascular anatomy in real-time with the technical advantages of robotics that is useful for meticulous lymphovascular dissection...
