Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Pyeloplasties are time-sensitive, and the most common robot assisted intervention performed in pediatric urology. Early intervention is intended to avoid permanent loss of renal function with negative long-term effects if surgery is delayed when indicated. A need to increase capacity has become a premium value in patient care.
