Extraperitoneal Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy with the Hugo™ RAS System: Initial Experience at a High-Volume Robotic Centre.

The Hugo™ Robotic-Assisted Surgery (Hugo™ RAS) system represents a novel advancement in robotic surgical technology. Despite this, there remains a scarcity of data regarding extraperitoneal robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (eRARP) using this system. We conducted a prospective study at Ospedale Regionale "F.

Electro-mediated drug administration of mitomycin C in preventing non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer recurrence and progression after transurethral resection of the bladder tumour in intermediate- and high-risk patients.

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of electro-mediated drug administration of mitomycin C (EMDA/MMC) after transurethral resection of the bladder tumour (TURBT) in preventing non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) recurrence and progression and to explore clinical and demographic factors associated with treatment response.

Patients And Methods: Between April 2016 and August 2019, 112 patients diagnosed with intermediate- or high-risk NMIBC underwent a TURBT followed by an EMDA/MMC treatment. The percentage of treatment responders and progression-free survivors at 3 and 6 months were evaluated.

Intravesical Treatment with Electro-Mediated Administration of Mytomicin C as Prophylaxis for Intermediate and High-Risk Nonmuscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer: A Retrospective Multicenter Study.

Background: Topical therapy of nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is based on immunotherapy with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin and chemotherapy administered by passive instillation, but an active drug administration achieves a better concentration of the drugs in the bladder.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of electromotive drug administration (EMDA) of mitomycin C (EMDA/MMC) in intermediate- and high-risk NMIBC patients 6 months after the end of induction treatment.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-five patients diagnosed with histologically confirmed NMIBC, with a complete transurethral resection of all visible tumors underwent EMDA/MMC.
