Quantitative measurement of the ureter on three-dimensional magnetic resonance urography images using deep learning.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Accurate measurement of ureteral diameters plays a pivotal role in diagnosing and monitoring urinary tract obstruction (UTO). While three-dimensional magnetic resonance urography (3D MRU) represents a significant advancement in imaging, t...

Robot-Assisted Ureteroplasty with Labial Mucosal Onlay Grafting for Long Left-Sided Proximal Ureteral Stenosis in Children and Adolescents: Technical Tips and Functional Outcomes.

Journal of endourology
To evaluate functional outcomes of robot-assisted ureteroplasty with labial mucosa grafting for long proximal ureteral stenosis (LPUS) in children and adolescents. Included in this study were 15 patients who underwent robot-assisted ureteroplasty w...

Single port (SP) robotic pyeloplasty in a pediatric patient.

Journal of pediatric urology
We began using the da Vinci single port (SP) robot for pediatric urologic surgeries at our institution due to limited access to the multiport robot. Availability of this technology has allowed us to schedule cases in a timelier fashion and increase a...

Robotic urologic surgery using the KangDuo-Surgical Robot-01 system: A single-center prospective analysis.

Chinese medical journal
BACKGROUND: The KangDuo-Surgical Robot-01 (KD-SR-01) system is a new surgical robot recently developed in China. The aim of this study was to present our single-center experience and mid-term outcomes of urological procedures using the KD-SR-01 syste...

Increase in robot assisted operating room efficiency: A quality improvement study.

Journal of pediatric urology
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 del...

A Pilot Study to Determine the Role of Spatulating the Ureter During Pyeloplasty in Children for Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction in the Robotic Era.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
Spatulation during ureteropelvic junction obstruction repair was evaluated in children treated by robot-assisted retroperitoneal pyeloplasty anastomosis (RRPA). Intraoperative video recordings (IVRs) of RRPA ( = 22 ureters) performed at a single in...
