Background
There have been only four cases of robot‐assisted laparoscopic resection of retroperitoneal paraganglioma (PGL) in the literature. Here we present our experience on robot‐assisted laparoscopic resection of large PGL in four patients to further evaluate its safety and efficacy.
Methods
From March 2013 to January 2015, four patients with large PGL underwent robot‐assisted laparoscopic...
To compare the perioperative outcomes of the transperitoneal (TP) and retroperitoneal (RP) approaches in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN).A literature search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS and the Cochrane Library was performed to identify relevant studies up to March 2016. All studies with enough data comparing TP-RAPN with RP-RAPN were included. Outcomes of interest were complication, conversion,...
ObjectiveTo conduct a meta‐analysis of the literature on the peri‐operative outcomes of both robot‐assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN).
Materials and MethodsAn electronic database search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, Google Scholar and the Cochrane Library was performed for publications up to 8 January 2013.All studies comparing RAPN with LPN were included. The outcome...
