PURPOSE: Spinal augmentation procedures (SAP) are standard procedures for vertebral compression fractures. Often, SAPs are carried out in a minimally invasive, percutaneous way. Certain anatomic conditions such as small pedicles or kyphotic deformiti...
Active surveillance (AS), radical prostatectomy (RP), and radical radiotherapy (RT) are the three options for localized prostate cancer. Only a few studies have been conducted in developing countries or in centers in their initial learning curve that...
OBJECTIVE: Vaginal prolapse is a known complication after radical cystectomy, requiring additional procedures in 10% of the patients. This results from loss of level I and II vaginal support due to the removal of pelvic structures. In addition, a neo...
INTRODUCTION: Highly complex renal masses pose a challenge to urologic surgeons' ability to perform robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN). Given the increased utilization of the robotic approach for small renal masses, we sought to characterize the outco...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gastrectomy (RG) for gastric cancer is still not well standardized. This study aimed to explore the feasibility and effectiveness of solo surgery in robot-assisted gastrectomy (SRG) for gastric cancer compared to laparoscop...
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to investigate and compare clinical safety and efficiency of Thulium laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuLEP) and robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) for the treatment of large gland benign prostatic h...
Minimally invasive surgery is usually more beneficial than open surgeries in various fields of surgery. With the newly developed Single-Port (SP) robotic surgical system, even single-site surgery has become easier to access. We compared single-incisi...
Robotic assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is a standard option for the treatment of bladder cancer. Currently, novel platforms are entering the market and the Hugo RAS (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) is a new system consisting of an open console w...
