Development and internal validation of a novel predictive model to guide an individualized risk assessment in prostate cancer patients.

Introduction And Objectives: To provide a risk-adapted strategy to manage prostate cancer (PCa) patients eligible for curative surgery by developing an individualized risk calculator to predict oncologic outcomes.

Materials And Methods: Data of consecutive patients treated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) between March 2020 and June 2023 at a single tertiary referral center were prospectively collected and analyzed. Multivariate analysis using Cox proportional hazards model were performed to explore predictors of 3-year biochemical failure (BCF).

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.

3D virtual model for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy in highly-complex cases (PADUA ⩾ 10).

Purpose: To compare two cohorts of patients submitted to robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for highly-complex renal masses (PADUA ⩾ 10) with versus without the use of 3DVMs.

Materials And Methods: We screened a prospective consecutive cohort of 152 patients submitted to RAPN with 3DVM and 1264 patients submitted to RAPN without 3DVM between 2019 and 2022. Only PADUA ⩾ 10 cases were considered eligible for analysis.

Three-dimensional virtual model for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy: a propensity-score matching analysis with a contemporary control group.

Purpose: To compare two cohorts of patients submitted to robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) with vs without the use of three-dimensional virtual models (3DVMs).

Methods: We screened a prospective consecutive cohort of 152 patients submitted to RAPN with 3DVM and 1264 patients submitted to RAPN without 3DVM between 2019 and 2022. Propensity score matching analysis (PSMA) was applied.

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.

Redo Partial Nephrectomy for Local Recurrence After Previous Nephron-sparing Surgery. Surgical Insights and Oncologic Results from a High-volume Robotic Center.

Background: The role of redo partial nephrectomy (PN) for recurrent renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is still overlooked.

Objective: To report our experience of salvage PN for local recurrence after previous nephron-sparing surgery (NSS).

Design Setting And Participants: We prospectively gathered data from patients treated with robotic redo PN for locally recurrent RCC after previous NSS from January 2017 to January 2023.
