Prostate cancer affects the lives of millions of Americans each year. Since the advent of prostate-specific antigen testing, many cancers are found in initial stages and have the potential for curative resection; however, choosing which type of surgery to undergo can be a difficult task. This article reviews the outcomes of robotic prostatectomy in comparison with laparoscopic or open procedures. A PubMed search was performed to identify specific articles describing intraoperative details, surgical complications, cancer control, and continence and potency outcomes. Articles that revealed pertinent data were included in this study comparing robotic with laparoscopic or open prostatectomies.

: We conducted a systematic review and network meta-analysis to evaluate and compare the perioperative, functional, and oncological outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) with open radical prostatectomy (ORP) in patients with prostate cancer. A comprehensive literature search was performed in Pubmed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane library for papers published before May 2021. Only studies of patients with prostate cancer that assessed perioperative, functional, and oncological outcomes and reported outcome values were included.

: Resection of the caudate lobe of the liver is considered a highly challenging surgical procedure due to the deep anatomic location of this segment and the relationships with major vessels. There is no clear evidence about the safety and effectiveness of robotic resection of the caudate lobe. The aim of this systematic review was to report data about the safety, technical feasibility, and postoperative outcomes of robotic caudate lobectomy.
