DOI: 10.1002/term.2253
Abstract: Neuromuscular diseases of the gut alter the normal motility patterns. Although surgical intervention remains the standard treatment, preservation of the sphincter attached to the rest of the gut is challenging. The present study aimed to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s13244-020-00927-x
Abstract: Objectives To study the diffusion tensor-based fiber tracking feasibility to access the male urethral sphincter complex of patients with prostate cancer undergoing Retzius-sparing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP). Methods Twenty-eight patients (median age of 64.5 years… read more here.
