Salvage RARP Feasible, Effective
According to researchers, 57.3% of men who underwent salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy were pad-free at 12 months.
Robotic Surgery
Robotic PN May Offer Better Outcomes Than RFA for T1a RCC
Two-year recurrence-free survival was 100% vs 95.2% among robotic surgery and radiofrequency ablation patients, respectively.
Robotic Prostatectomy Centers Rising in the UK
Radical prostatectomy centers that closed from ’10 to ’14 more likely in areas with strong competition.
Robotic, Open Radical Cystectomy Offer Similar Results
A new review shows no significant differences in oncologic outcomes, long-term complications, and health-related quality of life between robot-assisted and open radical cystectomy.
Worse Survival After Robotic Cystectomy Seen at Low-Volume Centers
The researchers found lower overall survival among patients undergoing robot-assisted radical cystectomy at hospitals performing 10 or fewer procedures during 2010 to 2012.
Predictors of Post-RARP Readmission Identified
Patients with longer hospital stays and pre-discharge complications were at increased risk of readmission within 30 days of discharge.
Autologous Urethral Sling Does Not Improve Continence After Prostatectomy
No benefit of autologous urethral sling placement at robotic assisted radical prostatectomy on early return of continence at 6 months.
Robotic Nephrectomy for Localized RCC On The Rise
In 2013, nearly one third of all minimally invasive radical nephrectomies were performed with robotic assistance.
Tumor Features Predict Post-Cystectomy Recurrence
Predictors of distant recurrences after robot-assisted radical cystectomy were mainly dictated by pathological tumor characteristics.
