INTRODUCTION The use of robotics for benign etiology in gynecology has not proven to be more beneficial when compared to traditional laparoscopy. The major concern regarding robotic hysterectomy stems from its high cost. AIM To evaluate the clinical utility and effectiveness of one-arm reduced robotic-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy as a cost-effective surgical option for total robotic hys...

The concept of complete mesocolic excision and central vascular ligation for colonic cancer has been recently introduced. The paper describes a technique of right-sided complete mesocolic excision and intracorporeal anastomosis by using a single-port robotic approach with an additional conventional robotic port. We performed a single-port plus an additional port robotic surgery using the Da Vin...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW The objective of this article is to review the recently published literature on the use of robotic surgery in the management of gynecologic malignancies. RECENT FINDINGS Retrospective data collected from many institutions support the use of robotic surgery in the management of cervical, endometrial, and early-stage ovarian cancer. Benefits to robotic surgery include decrease...

introduction: sialadenoma papilliferum (sp) is a rare benign tumor, which originates from the minor salivary gland. it occurs at sites that have minor salivary glands, such as the palate, retromolar pads, buccal mucosa, and lips. the most common location for tumor development is on the hard palate. a differential diagnosis consists of ruling out other salivary gland tumors. transoral robotic su...
