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...
BACKGROUND: Since the development of minimally invasive surgery (MIS), laparoscopic and robotic approaches have been widely adopted. However, little has been published detailing the learning curve of MIS, especially in infants.
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...
PURPOSE: To describe a novel modification of technique to improve efficacy of robot-assisted laparoscopic extravesical ureteral reimplantation (RALUR-EV) in infants.
It is generally accepted that robotic ureteral reconstruction provides equivalent results to open and laparoscopic approaches while decreasing pain and length of stay. There is a rapid expansion of robotic ureteral reconstructive techniques, platform...
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...
A retrocaval ureter (RCU) is a rare cause of congenital ureteral obstruction that often requires surgical repair. We report two cases of RCU in adults treated with robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery. In both cases, we performed robotic ureteroureter...
BACKGROUND: Ureteral injury and vaginal fistula are common complications after surgical treatment and radiotherapy of gynecological tumor. Ureteral injury in duplex system is more challenging and rarely reported. OBJECTIVE: We report our surgical tec...
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...
Although robot-assisted laparoscopic ureter reimplantation (RALUR) is a recognized alternative to open and laparoscopic ureter reimplantation in treating distal ureteral obstruction, there are limited data on long-term efficacy and safety outcomes o...
