A Contemporary Review of Robotic Resection for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

: Robotic hepatectomy represents an appealing treatment modality for resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A contemporary review of robotic hepatectomy compared to laparoscopic/open hepatectomy is necessary. : We performed a literature review to identify studies between 2018-2024 comparing robotic to laparoscopic/open hepatectomy for HCC with measurable outcomes.

Relationship between Fitzpatrick Skin Type and The Cancer Genome Atlas Classification with Melanoma-Related Metastasis and Death in 854 Patients at a Single Ocular Oncology Center.

Background: The Fitzpatrick Skin Type (FST) is an objective method of classifying patients based on skin color and sunburn sensitivity. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) is a method of determining the prognosis of patients with uveal melanoma based on genetic composition of the tumor.
