To compare the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) performed using the KangDuo surgical robot system to the da Vinci Si robotic system in clinically localized prostate cancer (KD-RARP DV-RARP). A total o...

BACKGROUND: An informed decision regarding a treatment option requires data on its long-term efficacy and side-effect profile. While the side-effects of robotic radical prostatectomy have been well-quantified, the data on its long-term efficacy are l...
BACKGROUND: Medically intractable Parkinson's disease (PD) tremor is a common difficult clinical situation with major impact on patient's quality of life (QOL). Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective therapy but is not an option for many patien...
Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in men with body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg/m is considered technically challenging. We conducted a retrospective matched-pair analysis to compare the oncological and functional outcomes of RARP in men with B...
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this randomized trial is to evaluate the early removal of postoperative drains after robot-assisted minimally invasive oesophagectomy (RAMIE). Evidence is lacking about feasibility, associated pain, recovery, and morbidity.
Although retroperitoneal surgery has demonstrated a better quality of recovery compared to transperitoneal routes, Retroperitoneal Robot Assisted Partial Nephrectomy (RRAPN) remains proportionally infrequent. As the boundaries of what is achievable r...

BACKGROUND: We have developed a wearable rehabilitation robot, "curara®," and examined its immediate effect in patients with spinocerebellar degeneration and stroke, but its rehabilitative effect has not been clarified. The purpose of this study was ...
BACKGROUND: Little is known regarding functional outcomes after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and intracorporeal neobladder (ICNB) reconstruction.
BACKGROUND: An empirical selective clamping strategy based on the direction of the arterial branches can lead to failures during partial nephrectomy, even when assisted by three-dimensional virtual models (3DVMs).
