[OBJECTIVE] To investigate combined effects of robot-assisted training (RAT) and physical therapy versus physical therapy only on balance and gait function of chronic stroke patients after botulinum toxin-A (BoNT-A) treatment. [METHODS] Fo…

[BACKGROUND] The conventional transcervical resection for submandibular gland disease has some risks and an unsatisfactory cosmetic result. Recently, robot-assisted surgery has been developed as a plausible substitute for conventional surge…

Various approaches have been described for excision of a submandibular gland including endoscopic and robot-assisted techniques. We present the outcome of excision by a robot-assisted postauricular facelift approach and compare it with the …

[UNLABELLED] Mandibular angle split osteotomy (MASO) is a procedure widely used for prominent mandibular angles. However, conventional mandibular plastic surgery is invasive and high risk. It may induce postoperative neurosensory disturbanc…

[OBJECTIVES] The purpose of this study was to compare the functional and cosmetic outcomes of robot-assisted neck dissection with those of conventional neck dissection. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] We prospectively analyzed 113 patients with he…

[BACKGROUND] This study evaluated the feasibility of non-magnified resection of various benign lesions of the upper neck using the facelift incision without endoscopic equipment to establish indications for the procedure. [METHODS] This re…

We investigated the combination of robot-assisted rehabilitation (RT) using a single-joint hybrid assistive limb (HAL-SJ) and botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) as therapy for paretic arm with spasticity in post-stroke patients. Participants were se…

The aim of this study was to evaluate the technical feasibility and safety of robot-assisted modified radical neck dissection (MRND) for head and neck cancer patients with a clinically node-positive neck. The cases of 10 head and neck cance…

[OBJECTIVE] Robotic head and neck surgery potentially reduces the morbidity associated with traditional open procedures. This study's goal was to employ a novel highly articulated robotic system (Flex Robotic System) for head and neck proce…

[PURPOSE] Complex urological reconstruction may be facilitated by the improved magnification and dexterity provided by a robotic approach. Minimally invasive surgery also has the potential advantages of decreased length of stay and improved…

Robot-assisted surgery is being increasingly used by surgeons because of its enhancement of visualization, precision, and articulation compared with conventional minimally invasive techniques. In recent years, robot-assisted neck dissection…

[BACKGROUND] Remote-access techniques have been described over the recent years as a method of removing the thyroid gland without an incision in the neck. However, there is confusion related to the number of techniques available and the ide…

[OBJECTIVES] The aim of this study is to describe the feasibility as well as oncologic outcomes of robot-assisted neck dissection (RAND) through a modified facelift incision in an American population. [STUDY DESIGN] Retrospective case seri…

Among various surgical methods introduced to optimize esthetic results, robotic surgery has gradually expanded in scope. As incision, approach, and operation view in robotic surgery differ from existing surgical methods, we should consider …

Various approaches have been employed to avoid visible scars in the neck, along with the development of robotic and endoscopic techniques. We have employed a technique of robot-assisted excision of branchial cleft cyst (BCC) via a postauric…

[BACKGROUND] A new approach to modifying facelift incision was recently developed for robotic thyroid surgery that seemed to be advantageous over other existing approaches. In this study, we aimed to investigate the feasibility and safety o…

[BACKGROUND] In a previous study of robot-assisted neck dissection (RAND), we limited the indication for neck dissection in clinical N0 head and neck cancer. The purpose of this study was for us to present the comparison of the results of t…

[BACKGROUND] Cosmesis is of increasing importance to the otolaryngology patient population. This is the first report of clinical outcomes of robot-assisted neck dissection by North American groups. [METHODS] This is a retrospective case-co…

[BACKGROUND] Traditionally, total thyroidectomy was performed through an open transcervical incision; in cases where there was evident nodal metastasis, the conventional surgical approach was to extend the incision into a large single trans…
