The aim of this study is to report our experience in minimally invasive management of rectovesical fistulae (RVFs). Between 2004 and 2021, 24 patients who underwent minimally invasive RVF repair by a single surgeon at 3 international institutions w...
PURPOSE: The utilization rate of robotic surgery for bariatric procedures is not well-described. Our study identified the proportion of metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) procedures in the United States between 2015 and 2020 performed using a robo...
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.
Delayed surgical reconstruction of iatrogenic ureteral injuries is often a challenging procedure because spreading scar tissue impedes accurate identification and dissection of the injured ureter. We report a novel real-time navigation system using a...
