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...
PURPOSE: This pilot study was designed to interpret the technically specific features of the avatera robotic system and present our initial experience with this novel platform in robot-assisted pyeloplasty (RAP).
Robot-assisted laparoscopy (RALP), conventional laparoscopy (LP), and balloon dilation (BD) have all been identified as common treatments for benign ureteral stricture (BUS). The purpose of the research would be to compare the safety and efficacy di...

BACKGROUND: Ureteroplasty with a single onlay graft for proximal ureter stricture has been widely used in the clinic. However, robotic ureteroplasty with a double lingual mucosal graft (RU-DLMG) has not been reported.
Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is a platform for urine and blood sample analysis. However, the high variability in the urine sample reduced the confidence of metabolite identification. Therefore, pre and post-calibration operations a...
BACKGROUND: In the past two decades, technology has advanced to augment an already minimally-invasive approach in laparoscopic surgery. Robotic-assisted laparoscopic platforms have now evolved to its 4th-generation product: a single-port system, firs...
The surgical video demonstrates the technical nuances of performing pyeloplasties on complex renal anomalies, including duplex, horseshoe, malrotated, and ectopic kidneys. The video also highlights the anatomic relationships of the affected kidney fo...
