Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: prostate, bladder and kidney cancer surgeries, robotics comprised 29.6%; in 2015, this increased to 69.2% of the aggregate 88 198 surgeries CONCLUSIONS: Robotics is now a major domain in uro-oncologic surgery vis-a-vis its open counterpart.Presented is the first metaanalysis of the entire field.Level I data are scarce.The world literature to date indicates that contemporary outcomes of robotic RP, RC and PN surgery are now at a minimum equal, but mostly superior, to open surgery, except for operative time and costs.Going forward, implementing metrics-based robotic training programs and assessing the financial value-proposition of robotics for the U.S. healthcare system is required.
