A cumulative sum (CUSUM) analysis studying operative times and complications for a surgeon transitioning from laparoscopic to robot-assisted pediatric pyeloplasty: Defining proficiency and competency.

Journal of pediatric urology
INTRODUCTION: The transition from laparoscopic to robot-assisted procedures leads to potential increase in operative times and health care costs. Cumulative sum (CUSUM) analysis can objectively study the learning curve to detect significant changes i...

Single-port robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty in an infant: A video case report with 9 months follow up.

Journal of pediatric urology
INTRODUCTION: Single-port robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery is a breakthrough in the field of minimally invasive surgery. However, it is currently only applicable to older children due to the limitation of operating space. Here, we report a case of...

Laparoscopic and robot-assisted ureterocalicostomy for treatment of primary and recurrent pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction in children: a multicenter comparative study with laparoscopic and robot-assisted Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasty.

International urology and nephrology
PURPOSE: This multi-institutional study aimed to assess the outcomes of laparoscopic ureterocalicostomy (LUC) and robot-assisted laparoscopic ureterocalicostomy (RALUC) and compare them with laparoscopic pyeloplasty (LP) and robot-assisted laparoscop...

Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Ureterocalicostomy in the Setting of Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction: A Multi-Institutional Cohort.

The Journal of urology
PURPOSE: Recurrent ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) after failed pyeloplasty is a complex surgical dilemma. The robot-assisted laparoscopic ureterocalicostomy (RALUC) is a potential surgical approach, but widespread adoption is limited due t...

Personalized application of machine learning algorithms to identify pediatric patients at risk for recurrent ureteropelvic junction obstruction after dismembered pyeloplasty.

World journal of urology
PURPOSE: To develop a model that predicts whether a child will develop a recurrent obstruction after pyeloplasty, determine their survival risk score, and expected time to re-intervention using machine learning (ML).

Robot-assisted laparoscopic urologic surgery in infants weighing ≤10 kg: A weight stratified analysis.

Journal of pediatric urology
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted laparoscopic (RAL) urologic surgery is widely used in pediatric patients, though less commonly in infants. There are small series demonstrating safety and efficacy in infants, however, stratification by infant size has ra...

Comparative Outcomes of Double-J and Cutaneous Pyeloureteral Stents in Pediatric Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty.

Journal of endourology
Comparative outcome studies investigating internal Double-J (DJ) and externalized stents have primarily been performed for open and laparoscopic pyeloplasty, with a paucity of literature surrounding outcomes in robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplast...
