First Prospective Multicenter Evaluation of Robotic-assisted Partial Nephrectomy Using the DEXTER Robotic Surgery System
This is a prospective, multicenter cohort study of patients who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with the DEXTER Robotic Surgery System. During the study, all procedures were completed successfully without any conversions to open or laparoscopic surgery. The results support the short-term safety and feasibility, and highlight the ease of implementation of DEXTER. Further studies are needed to assess its long-term performance.
