Background: The Da Vinci single-port (SP) platform is being used more frequently in radical prostatectomy (RP). In this study we aimed to compare the complications and oncological outcomes of SP robotic-assisted (SP-RARP) between elderly young age-groups further examine differences young-old old-old patients. Materials Methods: Data from 193 patients who underwent SP-RARP December 2018 June 2024 were analyzed. Patients categorized into two age-groups: (18-64 years) (65+ years). group was...
Introduction: Adrenalectomies are widely regarded as the preferred treatment for adrenal tumors, typically conducted via laparoscopic or robotic transperitoneal approaches.1 In contrast, posterior retroperitoneal approaches less common, largely due to constrained maneuvering space they offer. Single-port radical adrenalectomy (SP-RRA) has become increasingly popular possibility combine several advantages, such reduced postoperative pain, shorter operative durations, decreased blood loss, and...
The aim of this study was to explore perioperative and functional outcomes in a cohort patients with highly hostile abdomens treated retroperitoneal (RP) single port vs transperitoneal multiport robot assisted partial nephrectomy. Clinical surgical data all consecutive RP single-port nephrectomy between March 2019 January 2024 were prospectively collected retrospectively analyzed. presence "hostile abdomen" defined as personal history at least one major abdominal surgery. Multivariable...
Chyluria, an abnormal lymphatic disorder, results in excessive abdominal lymph drainage into the urinary system, causing protein loss, nutritional deficiencies, and immune issues. Mainly linked to parasitic infections developed countries, non-parasitic causes like trauma or tumors are rare. Typically appearing adults with bilateral involvement, management options include conservative surgical approaches. We present case of a 13-year-old congenital chyluria, treated robot-assisted staged...
