Abstract Literature meta-analyses comparing transperitoneal versus retroperitoneal approach to robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) suggested some advantages favoring retroperitoneoscopy. Unfortunately, patient-centered data about mobilization, canalization, pain, and use of painkillers remained anecdotally reported. The present analysis aimed compare RPN focusing on such outcomes. Study including baseline variables, perioperative, postoperative outcomes interest were retrieved from...
This study aims to prospectively compare the outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) performed using Hugo RAS and da Vinci Xi systems, focusing on postoperative course, pathological findings, health-related quality life.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer (PCA) alter the normal growth patterns of zonal anatomy with changes volume (PV). Chronic inflammatory infiltrates (CII) type IV are most common non-cancer diagnosis after biopsy.To evaluate associations both PV index (PVI), i.e. ratio transitional zone (TZV) to peripheral (PZV), CII PCA in patients undergoing biopsy.Between January 2007 December 2008, 268 consecutive who underwent biopsy were retrospectively evaluated. TZV measured by...
To assess the incidence of malignancy involvement lymph nodes (LNs) in Marcille's fossa patients undergoing robot assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and extended pelvic dissection (ePLND) for prostate cancer (PCa).Between January 2014 December 2017, details who underwent RARP ePLND were prospectively analysed. All nodal packets dissected separately, grouped into left right submitted separate packages to dedicated pathologist.Two hundred twenty-one study period. In aggregate, LNs was found...
ObjectivesTo report the development of artificial intelligence (AI)-based software to allow for autonomous fusion transrectal ultrasound and multiparametric magnetic resonance images prostate be used during transperineal biopsies.Materials MethodsThis study was approved by Institutional Review Board (protocol ID3167CESC). The automatic biopsy involved three steps: 1) Developing an AI component segment ultrasound; 2) anatomical structures in using labeled datasets from Cancer Imaging Archive...
Purpose: Hyperthermia has been used in several trials to treat pelvic cancers without excessive toxicity and with positive results. The aim of this study was evaluate feasibility results terms biochemical recurrence-free, disease-free survival, overall treatment profile hyperthermia combined radiotherapy locally advanced high risk prostate cancer.Patients methods: From November 1998 December 2004, 144 patients cancer (LAPC) were enrolled a phase II study. They treated using conformal (CRT)...
Prostate cancer • Low risk Tumor grade upgrading Gleason score systemObjective: To identify significant clinical factors associated with prostate (PCa) the low-risk PCa patients graded according to modified system.Materials and Methods: The logistic regression model was used evaluate records of 438 patients.Results: There were 170 cases (38.8%) tumors upgraded in 111 (65.3%).Only specific antigen (PSA) proportion positive cores (P+) independent predictors tumor upgrading.Further exploration...
Objective: To determinate benefits of the combination local anesthetic wounds infiltration and ultrasound transversus abdominal plane (US-TAP) block with ropivacaine on postoperative pain, early recovery, hospital stay in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Methods: The study is double-blinded randomized controlled trial. Our hypothesis was that wound US-TAP would decrease immediate pain opioids use. Primary outcomes included demand during stay. Secondary were...
The aim of this study was to assess the anatomical prevalence and secondary involvement Cloquet's nodes in patients undergoing robotic radical prostatectomy (RRP) extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) for prostate cancer (PCa).RRP ePLND were performed by two expert surgeons (WA VDM). Data prospectively collected retrospectively analyzed. Dissected sampled according an template as follows: external iliac, obturator, Marcille's, Cloquet's. Node packages sent dedicated pathologist...
