Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Ureterocalicostomy in the Setting of Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction: A Multi-Institutional Cohort.

The Journal of urology
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...

Ureteral Reimplantation for Primary Obstructive Megaureter in Pediatric Patients: Is It Time for Robot-Assisted Approach?

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
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...

Personalized application of machine learning algorithms to identify pediatric patients at risk for recurrent ureteropelvic junction obstruction after dismembered pyeloplasty.

World journal of urology
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).

Robot-assisted laparoscopic urologic surgery in infants weighing ≤10 kg: A weight stratified analysis.

Journal of pediatric urology
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted laparoscopic (RAL) urologic surgery is widely used in pediatric patients, though less commonly in infants. There are small series demonstrating safety and efficacy in infants, however, stratification by infant size has ra...

Intracorporeal Versus Extracorporeal Robot-assisted Kidney Autotransplantation: Experience of the ERUS RAKT Working Group.

European urology
BACKGROUND: Kidney autotransplantation is a useful technique to be reserved for cases in which kidney function is compromised by a complex anatomical configuration, such as long ureteral strictures and renal vascular anomalies not suitable for in sit...

Comparative Outcomes of Double-J and Cutaneous Pyeloureteral Stents in Pediatric Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty.

Journal of endourology
Comparative outcome studies investigating internal Double-J (DJ) and externalized stents have primarily been performed for open and laparoscopic pyeloplasty, with a paucity of literature surrounding outcomes in robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplast...

Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery for treatment of urinary tract stones in children: report of a multicenter international experience.

Urolithiasis
This study aimed to report a multi-institutional experience with robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery (RALS) for treatment of urinary tract stones in children. The medical records of 15 patients (12 boys), who underwent RALS for urolithiasis in 4 inte...

A systematic review and meta-analysis of conventional laparoscopic versus robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty in infants.

Journal of pediatric urology
OBJECTIVE: While there are several reports confirming the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic pyeloplasty (LP) and robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) in children there have been none comparing LP and RALP specifically in infants. In this ...

Day-case catheterless and drainless minimal-access pyeloplasty in adults: A single-center experience of 13 years.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: To analyze our practice of drainless and catheterless day-case minimal-access pyeloplasty with regard to feasibility, safety and long-term outcomes.
