چکیده
We report the case of a 68-year-old man who had previously undergone heart transplantation and pelvic irradiation for Hodgkin's lymphoma and who was under active surveillance for prostate cancer. In response to his increased prostate-specific antigen levels and elevated Gleason score, he was offered robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy.

متن کاملObturator Compartment Syndrome Secondary to Pelvic Hematoma After Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy
Obturator nerve injury is a known injury after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) and patients often present with motor and sensory deficits in the immediate postoperative period. We describe a 65-year-old male who presented with motor deficits, indicative of obturator neurapraxia after RALP upon waking from anesthesia. Work-up revealed an expansile hematoma possibly compr...
متن کاملRobot-Assisted Laparoscopic Seminal Vesicle Cystadenoma Excision
BACKGROUND Cystadenoma is an extremely rare benign tumor of the seminal vesicle. Diagnosis of these tumors and differential diagnosis from malignant ones may be challenging since most of the time symptoms do not occur. Management of these tumors remains debatable due to the limited data in the literature. We present the first robot-assisted laparoscopic excision of a cystadenoma of the seminal ...

A 59-year-old man with a history of prostate cancer and clear-cell renal-cell carcinoma of the kidney underwent a combined robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and radical prostatectomy. We describe the initial report of a combined robot-assisted operation for both procedures concurrently with a port strategy allowing reuse of ports.
