Background: A standard of care for the treatment of small renal masses is partial nephrectomy. The open and laparoscopic approaches have been well described in the literature. Robotic assistance ...

Robotic partial nephrectomy has the advantage of making reconstruction of the kidney easier, and thus possibly more available to practicing urologists. Indeed, this is similar to the situation ...

This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of Trifecta and Pentafecta outcomes between T1a and T1b renal tumors in patients undergoing robotic partial nephrectomy (RAPN). We explore the ...

Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression analysis evaluating the association between clinical variables and urinary leak after partial nephrectomy.* CI: Confidence interval, EBL: Estimated blood ...

Testicular cancer accounts for 5% of urological tumors, with an incidence of 5.6 cases per 100,000 men per year in Europe (1). Salvage retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy is the standard surgery for ...

Effect of race-free estimated glomerular filtration rate equations (eGFR) on oncology clinical trial eligibility for Black patients.

Discussion: This work develops an intelligent contour extraction approach on ultrasound images. Our approach obtained more satisfactory outcome compared with recent state-of-the-art approaches . The ...

I narrow in on the approach to robot rights called relationalism, and ask: if we provide robots moral standing based on how humans relate to them, are we moving past human chauvinism, or are we merely ...
