Functional and Oncologic Outcomes in Single-Kidney Patients Treated with Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy for Renal Tumors: Results from a Prospectively Maintained Dataset of a Single Tertiary Referral Center.

: Renal tumors in solitary kidneys require treatments that optimize both oncological and functional outcomes. Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) offers a balance between these needs and reduced morbidity. This study investigates the oncologic and functional outcomes of RAPN in solitary-kidney patients.

Complication rate across the minimally invasive surgical treatments (MISTs): where do we stand? A systematic review of the literature.

Background: Over the past decade, the range of surgical options to benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) has expanded significantly with the advent of minimally invasive surgical therapies (MISTs). Nevertheless, the available evidence in the field is heterogeneous. Efficacy and safety thresholds are yet to be determined.

Step by step technique of Stentless Florence Robotic Intracorporeal Neobladder (FloRIN), does the ureteral management influence functional outcomes?

Introduction: Benefits and harms of avoid the sent placement during IntraCorporeal Neobladder configuration are still debated. Our objective was to describe the step-by-step technique of Florence intracorporeal neobladder (FloRIN) configuration performed with stentless procedure focusing on perioperative and mid-term functional outcomes.

Materials And Methods: In this single institution prospective randomized 1:1 series all consecutive patients underwent Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy (RARC) and FloRIN reconfiguration from January 2021 to March 2021 were enrolled.

Assessing the Performance of 18F-FDG PET/CT in Bladder Cancer: A Narrative Review of Current Evidence.

Introduction: Lymph node (LN) involvement is a crucial determinant of prognosis for patients with bladder cancer, and an accurate staging is of utmost importance to better identify timely and appropriate therapeutic strategies. To improve the accuracy of LN detection, as an alternative to traditional methods such as CT or MRI, 18F-FDG PET/CT has been increasingly used. 18F-FDG PET/CT is also used in post-treatment restaging after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
