A primary seminal vesicle leiomyoma (PSVL) is a rare male genitourinary tract tumor. No previous reports have utilized a robotic-assisted laparoscopic posterior approach (RALPA) for surgical management. A 76-year-old man was incidentally found to have a 5cm lobulated mass posterior to the bladder in an abdominal/pelvic computed tomography scan. Biopsy confirmed leiomyoma. RALPA was utilized to excise the mass without complications. PSVLs are benign tumors with obstructive and minimal metastatic potential. Robotic-assisted surgery provides high fidelity, low risk, and an accelerated postoperative course compared to open surgery. The RALPA should be considered when surgical excision of PSVLs is required.

Department of Surgery, Chibanishi General Hospital, Chiba, Japan.
Introduction: Preoperative identification of the site of rectal cancer surgery is crucial for ensuring accurate tumor localization and resection. Commonly employed methods include contrast-enhanced enterography and endoscopic marking techniques, such as clipping and India ink tattooing. However, India ink tattooing poses challenges, including obstruction of the surgical field, ink leakage into the abdominal cavity, and potential complications such as peritonitis and adhesive bowel obstruction.

Purpose: Although surgical procedures including robotic surgery in radical prostatectomy have evolved, urinary incontinence after surgery are still not resolved. This study was to evaluate the risk of clinically significant incontinence after radical prostatectomy according to various procedural types.
Materials And Methods: The retrospective cohort study included prostate cancer (n=14,484) in South Korea between 2002 and 2017 as shown in the National Health Insurance Data.

Introduction: There is a risk of iatrogenic vascular injuries during robotic-assisted laparoscopic excision of diaphragmatic endometriosis. Although studies are limited, the first reported case of a suprahepatic inferior vena cava (IVC) injury during robotic diaphragmatic endometriosis excision was successfully treated using a fibrin sealant patch, preventing exsanguination and conversion to laparotomy.
Case Description: A 36-year-old female with a history of recurrent catamenial pneumothorax and two prior video-assisted thoracoscopic surgeries to treat diaphragmatic endometriosis presented to our clinic with right-sided shoulder pain and a chest tube in place.

Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, Department of Surgery, Newark, New Jersey. (Drs. Lad, Hsiung, and Amin).
Introduction: It is rare for adult female patients to present with incarcerated inguinal hernias containing ovary, fallopian tube, or uterine tissue. Potential surgical treatment options for incarcerated inguinal hernias containing ovary, fallopian tube or uterine tissue include open inguinal hernia repair (IHR), laparoscopic or robotic IHR.
Case Description: Herein, we report a case of an adult female presenting with a unilateral incarcerated inguinal hernia containing ectopic pregnancy.
