Extraperitoneal robot-assisted radical prostatectomy by the da Vinci and Versius System: first comparative analysis.

Background: Robotic-assisted surgery (particularly with the da Vinci Surgical System) has revolutionized urological interventions. The advent of the Versius Surgical System introduces a compelling alternative. This study compares outcomes of extraperitoneal robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (eRARP) using da Vinci and Versius, presenting the largest case series to date.

Comparison of PIV and Other Immune Inflammation Markers of Oncological and Survival Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy.

Unlabelled: Inflammation is widely acknowledged as a significant characteristic of cancer, playing a substantial function in both the initiation and advancement of cancers. In this research, we planned to compare pan-immune inflammation markers and other well-known markers (systemic immune inflammation index and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio) to predict prognosis in individuals treated with radical cystectomy for bladder cancer.

Methods: In this retrospective analysis, we focused on preoperative PIV, systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in 193 individuals managed with radical cystectomy for bladder cancer between January 2016 and November 2022.

Staghorn Caliceal Hem-o-lok Stone: A Long-Term Complication of Robotic Partial Nephrectomy - A Case Report and Literature Review.

Introduction: Hem-o-lok clips (HOLCs) are a useful tool in mini-invasive surgery, especially for renal surgery. However, in rare cases, they could migrate into the collecting system and be calculogenic.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a 53 years old man with an incidental CT finding of a left staghorn caliceal stone increasing its size in the last 2 years.

Synchronous Partial Nephrectomy and Renal Artery Aneurysm Repair in Bilateral Renal Cancers: Case Report and Literature Review.

The treatment of renal cancer has changed in the last decades with an increase in application of conservative surgery such as partial nephrectomy (PN) in order to achieve an optimal oncological outcome with the maximum preservation of renal function. The indication for PN is mandatory in case of bilateral tumors or in case of impaired renal function. Renal artery (RA) aneurysm (RAA) is a rare occurrence, and its treatment could be radiological or surgical according to the anatomy of the aneurysm and the clinical characteristics of the patients.
