AB017. Robotic surgery at Yonsei University: lessons learned after 4,800 cases
نویسنده
چکیده
Since the introduction of the da Vinci Surgical System first time in Korea at Yonsei University in 2005, more than 13,000 robot surgical cases were performed which is the most experience in the world. Current review of use of robotics in urology, focused on prostate cancer and kidney cancer. Yonsei’s experience of more than 4,800 cases of robotic urologic cases including 700 robotic kidney cases is also presented as an example of robotic surgery in Asia. The most common procedure, robotic prostatectomy was analysed in detail including oncological and functional profiles. In 2015 there are new ways of performing prostatectomies and partial nephrectomies are available and will be discussed also. New frontiers of robotic surgery will be dealt to show the future of robotic surgery.

Background: This study was designed to suggest the possibility of hormone-related derangement in salvage radiotherapy (SRT) after radical prostatectomy in terms of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) control. Materials and Methods: Among 160 consecutive prostate cancer patients who received radical prostatectomy, 34 with SRT between 2004 and 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. The numbers of patien...

متن کاملYonsei Experience in Robotic Urologic Surgery - Application in Various Urological Procedures
PURPOSE The da Vinci robot system has been used to perform complex reconstructive procedures in a minimally invasive fashion. Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy has recently established as one of the standard cares. Based on experience with the robotic prostatectomy, its use is naturally expanding into other urologic surgeries. We examine our practical pattern and application of ...
