Event Detail
Martini Klinik Neurosafe Tecnhique Robotic Radical Prostatectomy Course, 4-5 November 2019
On 4 November 2019, participants observed a case of bilateral neurovascular bundle sparing robotic radical prostatectomy performed by Prof.Dr.M.Derya Balbay applying Martini-Klinik Neurosafe method using Da Vinci xi dual console surgical robot in the operating room. At the beginning of the surgery, preparation of the operating room and surgical robot, trocar placement, robot docking and instruments used were presented to the participants. Trainees also had the chance of observing frozen section analysis of the prostate by our uro-pathologists Prof.Dr.Dilek Ertoy Baydar and Dr.Ayşe Armutlu. Frozen result was reported as negative surgical margins and both neuromuscular bundles were preserved completely. Initially, retrograde infrarenal surgery and laser lithotripsy for kidney stones were performed on the same patient before starting robotic prostate cancer surgery.
On 5 November 2019, participants observed a case of bilateral neurovascular bundle sparing robotic radical prostatectomy performed by Prof.Dr.A.Erdem Canda applying Martini-Klinik Neurosafe method using Da Vinci xi dual console surgical robot in the operating room. Bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection was also performed on this patient. At the beginning of the surgery, preparation of the operating room and surgical robot, trocar placement, robot docking and instruments used were presented to the participants. Trainees also had the chance of observing frozen section analysis of the prostate by our uro-pathologists Prof.Dr.Dilek Ertoy Baydar and Dr.Ayşe Armutlu. Frozen result was reported as negative surgical margins and both neuromuscular bundles were preserved completely. Before the surgery, multiparametric prostate MRI of the patient was coverted to 3D with tumor marked with another color and these images were transferred to Da Vinci xi robot via tile pro and used as a guide by Prof.Canda during performing the robotic radical prostatectomy procedure (tumor navigated cancer surgery).
