Background: To evaluate the utility of robot-assisted laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal repair (R-TAPP) of postprostatectomy inguinal hernia (PIH) in patients who underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).
Patients And Methods: This was a prospective, single-centre retrospective cohort study. R-TAPP was conducted in 74 consecutive patients from September 2016 to March 2020. With the exception of women and patients who underwent previous abdominal surgery, 70 patients were classified into two groups based on the absence or presence of PIH. Their data were retrospectively compared to those who had not undergone RALP.
Results: The median operative time for the PIH group was longer compared to the non-PIH group. However, postoperative complications, including seroma formation, haematoma and surgical site infections, were not significantly different between the groups. The estimated blood loss was small, and hospitalisation duration was 1 day in all cases. Moreover, there were no hernia recurrences within the 90-day follow-up period in either group.
Conclusion: R-TAPP is a feasible and safe approach for inguinal hernia repair, even in patients who undergo RALP for prostate cancer.

Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Sacrohysteropexy with Autologous Fascia Lata.
Int Urogynecol J
December 2024
Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Monash University, Clayton, VIC, 3168, Australia.
Introduction And Hypothesis: Autologous fascia lata has been increasingly utilised in pelvic floor reconstructive surgeries such as sacrocolpopexy and sacrohysteropexy. This case highlights sacrohysteropexy with autologous fascia lata as a promising option for women with advanced uterovaginal prolapse who wish to preserve their uterus and avoid synthetic mesh.
Methods: We report the case of a 65-year-old woman with stage 3 pelvic organ prolapse following one forceps and one spontaneous vaginal delivery.

Department of Phase I Clinical Research Center, The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, 400016, China.
Background: A new era in minimally invasive surgery has been ushered in by Leonardo's robot surgical system, but the safety and effectiveness in cervical cancer is lake of evidence. This study aimed to compare the safety, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (RRH) and conventional laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) in patients with cervical cancer.
Methods: Patients with cervical cancer who had radical surgery at the first affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between January 2017 and June 2022 were enrolled.
Impact of platelet-lymphocyte ratio after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with renorrhaphy.

Renorrhaphy is often performed after tumor resection during robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN). This study aimed to investigate the association between renorrhaphy performance and inflammatory markers. A retrospective cohort study was conducted including patients with renal cell carcinoma who underwent RAPN at eight institutions in Japan between April 2016 and November 2023.
