BACKGROUND: Complete intracorporal robotic ileal ureteric replacement is challenging. We aimed to present the surgical technique of robotic ileal ureter replacement with extracorporeal ileal segment preparation for long ureteral strictures.
The goal of this study was to assess the feasibility of three models for detecting hydronephrosis through ultrasound images using state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms. The diagnosis of hydronephrosis is challenging because of varying and non-spe...
INTRODUCTION: Antenatal hydronephrosis (ANH) is one of the most common anomalies identified on prenatal ultrasound, found in up to 4.5% of all pregnancies. Children with ANH are surveilled with repeated renal ultrasound and when there is high suspici...
PURPOSE: Hydronephrosis is a common pediatric urological condition, characterized by dilation of the renal collecting system. Accurate identification of the severity of hydronephrosis is crucial in clinical management, as high-grade hydronephrosis ca...
INTRODUCTION: Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in pediatric urology is gaining increased popularity and credibility. However, the literature lacks standardization in reporting and there are areas for methodological improvement, ...
INTRODUCTION: This study was performed to evaluate the differences in the perioperative results, renal function, and incidence of hydronephrosis over time between the use of Bricker anastomosis and Wallace anastomosis for robot-assisted intracorporea...
In order to provide decision-making support for the auxiliary diagnosis and individualized treatment of calculous pyonephrosis, the study aims to analyze the clinical features of the condition, investigate its risk factors, and develop a prediction m...
BACKGROUND: Hydronephrosis developing at the ureteropelvic junction due to obstruction poses clinical challenges as it has the potential to cause renal damage.
