Perioperative and Survival Outcomes of Patients Treated With Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy and Percutaneous Microwave Ablation for Small Renal Masses: A Single Center Experience.

Clinical genitourinary cancer
BACKGROUND: Robot assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and microwave ablation (MWA) are 2 of the most advanced techniques for the management of localized small renal masses.

Laparoscopic versus robotic TAPP/TEP inguinal hernia repair: a multicenter, propensity score weighted study.

Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery
PURPOSE: The objective of this retrospective study was to assess safety and comparative clinical effectiveness of laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR) and robot-assisted inguinal hernia repair (RIHR) from multi-institutional experience in Taiwa...

Treating drug-resistant tuberculosis in an era of shorter regimens: Insights from rural South Africa.

South African medical journal = Suid-Afrikaanse tydskrif vir geneeskunde
BACKGROUND: Progressive interventions have recently improved programmatic outcomes in drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) care in South Africa (SA). Amidst these, a shorter regimen was introduced in 2017 with weak evidence, and has shown mixed result...

A Deep-Learning Model for Predicting the Efficacy of Non-vascularized Fibular Grafting Using Digital Radiography.

Academic radiology
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To develop a fully automated deep-learning (DL) model using digital radiography (DR) with relatively high accuracy for predicting the efficacy of non-vascularized fibular grafting (NVFG) and identifying suitable patients for...

Can machine learning provide preoperative predictions of biological hemostasis after extracorporeal circulation for cardiac surgery?

The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery
OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to improve decision making regarding the transfusion of patients at the end of extracorporeal circulation for cardiac surgery through machine learning predictions of the evolution of platelets counts, prothrombi...

A Pilot Study to Determine the Role of Spatulating the Ureter During Pyeloplasty in Children for Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction in the Robotic Era.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
Spatulation during ureteropelvic junction obstruction repair was evaluated in children treated by robot-assisted retroperitoneal pyeloplasty anastomosis (RRPA). Intraoperative video recordings (IVRs) of RRPA ( = 22 ureters) performed at a single in...

Impact of Visceral Fat Area on Intraoperative Complexity and Surgical Approach Decision for Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy: A Comparative Analysis with BMI.

Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research
BACKGROUND Optimizing surgical approaches for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is vital for better patient outcomes. This retrospective study aimed to examine how visceral fat area (VFA) and body mass index (BMI) correlate with intraoperativ...

Transitioning from Da Vinci Si to Xi: assessing surgical outcomes at a high-volume robotic center.

World journal of urology
PURPOSE: In the emerging field of robotics, only few studies investigated the transition between different robotic platforms in terms of surgical outcomes. We aimed at assessing surgical outcomes of patients receiving robot-assisted radical prostatec...

Deep learning based identification of pituitary adenoma on surgical endoscopic images: a pilot study.

Neurosurgical review
Accurate tumor identification during surgical excision is necessary for neurosurgeons to determine the extent of resection without damaging the surrounding tissues. No conventional technologies have achieved reliable performance for pituitary adenoma...
