Robotic Seminal Vesicle Surgery: The Key Steps

The Effect of Retinoic Acid on Seminal Vesicle Epithelial Cell

Purpose: The seminal vesicles are androgen dependent exocrine glands producing protein-rich secretion. The retinoic acid has been implicated as a signaling molecule for the seminal vesicle development. In the present study, the effect of retinoic acid on seminal vesicle epithelial cell of neonatal mouse was investigated. Materials and Methods: Newborn male N-MRI mice were injected intraperiton...

Cystadenoma of the seminal vesicle.

Primary tumors of the seminal vesicle are extremely rare. Among them, there is a spectrum of tumors derived from both epithelium and stroma and so classified as epithelial-stromal tumors. Herein, we report a case of a cystadenoma in a 49-year-old asymptomatic man, detected in a routine ultrasonography for liver disease follow-up. The digital rectal examination detected a large mass anterior to ...

Robotic surgery: change in new surgery techniques

Medical science experts have reached scientific and technological improvements in recent ‎decades and have turned surgery into a routine treatment by controlling its complications. ‎Cumulative changes in surgery resulted in decreased pain and discomfort and controlled ‎complications. The developmental path and changes have resulted in endoscopic with minimal ‎invasive surgery (M...

The timing and route of seminal vesicle dissection during robotic prostatectomy

It is with great pleasure that I introduce this new section in the “Journal of Robotic Surgery”. This section, which will appear on a regular basis in the journal, will focus on some of the tough questions that surgeons face during their learning curve or application of robotic technologies to surgery. The Weld of robotic surgery is growing both in experience and technique. As we explore these ...
