Robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) was first described in 2004 and, since its introduction in clinical practice, has progressively gained increasing popularity. Over the years, the indications have also expanded, enabling robot-assisted surg...
INTRODUCTION: This study was performed to investigate the preoperative factors associated with difficulty achieving trifecta in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for clinical T1b renal cell carcinoma.
Innovation of robotic surgery is still actively growing, and various novel robotic systems are in the process of development. The objective of this study was to assess the perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) using the...
The treatment of lateral pelvic lymph node (LPLN) metastasis of rectal cancer has evolved because of technical difficulties from open surgery to laparoscopy and, recently, robot-assisted surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the technical feasibility...
Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures are the most common manifestation of osteoporosis. Percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) can lead to both pain improvement and correction of kyphosis secondary to collapsed vertebral bodies. Robot-assisted (RA) P...
BACKGROUND: cervical spinal cord injury leads to loss of upper limb functionality, which causes a decrease in autonomy to perform activities of daily living. The use of robotic technologies in rehabilitation could contribute to improving upper limb f...
OBJECTIVE: To provide the first clinical validation of the European Association of Urology Robotic Urology Section (ERUS) curriculum for training in robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion (iRARC).
To summarize surgical experiences with a new modified technique involving extraperitoneal single-incision robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy based on Da Vinci SI system by reviewing case data, including follow ups, and to evaluate the ...
Octogenarians undergoing cystectomy experience higher morbidity and mortality compared to younger patients. Though the non-inferiority of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) compared to open radical cystectomy (ORC) has been established in a gen...
