Bladder cancer (BCa) is the most common malignancy of the urinary tract and the most expensive malignancy to treat over the patients' lifetime. In recent years a number of studies have utilized Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms to perform certa...
INTRODUCTION: While various surgical techniques have been reported for open and minimally invasive treatment of upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC), the procedure of robot-assisted nephroureterectomy (NU) with bladder cuff has never been reported us...
OBJECTIVE: The diagnosis of bladder dysfunction for children depends on the confirmation of abnormal bladder shape and bladder compliance. The existing gold standard needs to conduct voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) examination and urodynamic studies ...
Treatment for bladder diverticula may become necessary in case of incomplete bladder emptying or recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). When bladder outlet obstruction is present, a simultaneous desobstructive procedure can be performed. In this...
INTRODUCTION: To clarify the safety and efficacy of en bloc simultaneous robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and laparoscopic nephroureterectomy (LNU) for synchronous muscle-invasive bladder carcinoma and upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) ...
MRI has helped clarify the relationship between pelvic anatomical structures and functional outcomes after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). The objective of this study was to assess the impact of the bladder neck angle (BNA) measured by ...
To present our preliminary experiences of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical or partial cystectomy for bladder/prostate rhabdomyosarcoma (B/P RMS) in children. A retrospective study was conducted with children who underwent robot-assisted laparosc...
We have developed a sensor for monitoring the hemoglobin (Hb) concentration in the effluent of a continuous bladder irrigation. The Hb concentration measurement is based on light absorption within a fixed measuring distance. The light frequency used ...
