Purpose The aim of the current narrative review was to summarize the available evidence in
the literature on artificial intelligence (AI) methods that have been applied during robotic …

The use of robotic surgery in urology has grown exponentially in the United States since the
first robotic prostatectomy was performed in 2000. From 2003 to 2012, the percentage of …

Background Intraoperative adverse events (iAEs) are surgical and anesthesiologic
complications. Despite the availability of grading criteria, iAEs are infrequently reported in …

Background The utilisation of robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal
reconstruction (iRARC) has increased in recent years. Little is known about the length of the …

Background Improved cancer control with increasing surgical experience—the learning
curve—was demonstrated for open and laparoscopic prostatectomy. In a prior single–center …

To improve patient outcomes in robotic surgery, robotic training and education need to be
modernised and augmented. The skills and performance levels of trainees need to be …

Introduction Multicenter retrospective analysis of robotic partial nephrectomy for completely
endophytic renal tumors (ie 3 points for the 'E'domain of the RENAL nephrometry score) was …

Background and objective Different training programs have been developed to improve
trainee outcomes in urology. However, evidence on the optimal training methodology is …

Context The development of a tailored, patient-specific medical and surgical approach is
becoming object of intense research. In kidney oncologic surgery, where a clear …

This recent literature analysis suggests that there is an urgent need to develop and validate
new structured training curricula for robotic surgery. This allows to improve the skills of the …
