This paper describes robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) from a living donor. The robot is docked between the parted legs of the patient, placed in the supine Trendelenburg position. Kidney allografts are provided by a living donor. Before v...
First proposed by Kimball and Ferris in 1933 for the treatment of papillary tumors in the upper urinary tract, radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) with bladder cuff excision remains the gold standard for management of high-risk upper tract urothelial ca...
Benign ureteroenteric anastomosis strictures (UESs) are one of many critical complications that may cause irreversible disability following robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC). Previous studies have shown that the incidence rates of UES after RA...
Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is replacing open radical cystectomy (ORC) and requires clamping of the ureters, resulting in a predisposition to postrenal acute kidney injury (AKI). We investigated the association between ureteral clamping ...
OBJECTIVES: To compare the perioperative and postoperative outcomes of single port (SP) robotic pyeloplasty and multiport (MP) robotic pyeloplasty using a propensity-score matched analysis.
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).

To compare open and robotic approach for treatment of Primary Obstructive Megaureter (POM) in a series of pediatric patients. Medical records of all patients who had undergone ureteral reimplantation for POM at our institution, between January 2016...
INTRODUCTION: While various surgical techniques have been reported for open and minimally invasive treatment of upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC), the procedure of robot-assisted nephroureterectomy (NU) with bladder cuff has never been reported us...
To demonstrate feasibility of robot-assisted laparoscopic (RAL) ureteroureterostomy (UU) for benign distal ureteral strictures (DUS) in our robotic reconstruction series with long-term follow-up. In a retrospective review of our prospectively maint...
