Robotic Ureteroureterostomy for Treatment of a Proximal Ureteric Stricture
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ureteral reconstruction can be challenging when done open or in a minimally-invasive manner. Ureteral reconstruction is a perfect use of the surgical robot. Here Andrade et al. (1) present a well-made and illustrative video that demonstrates the steps needed to complete a technically sound, minimally-invasive proximal ureteral repair. This will add to the body of literature and video instruction that improves and propels the field of robotic/minimally-invasive urologic reconstruction. doi: 10.1590/S1677-5538.IBJU.2015.0249.1

The study was based on the retrospective analysis of five patients diagnosed as having MUS. Diagnosis was suspected after fetal ultrasonography (USG) in one patient and magnetic resonance urography (MRU) in fo...
متن کاملFeasibility of Robot - assisted Segmental Ureterectomy and Ureteroureterostomy in Patient with High Medical Comorbidity
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Nephroureterectomy remains the gold standard treatment option for upper tract tumors. However, segmental ureterectomy may be another option in patients with single kidney, borderline renal function or high medical comorbidities. The aim of this video is to assess the feasibility of robotic surgery as a minimally invasive technique in treatment of a high comorbid pati...
متن کاملThe short-term outcome of laser endoureterotomy for ureteric stricture.
With the advent of new technology, the treatment for ureteric stricture has moved from open surgery to endoscopic procedures. Our goals were to review and determine the prognostic factors for success of laser endoureterotomy for ureteric stricture. This is a cross sectional study for all cases that underwent laser endoureterotomy in a single centre from 2002 to 2009. Standard treatment in this ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of retroperitoneal laparoscopic ureterolithotomy for the management of large proximal ureteric stones and the impact of this treatment on postoperative renal function. METHODS The data of 12 patients (7 men and 5 women; mean age, 68.5 ± 8.9 years) with large pyeloureteral junction (2 cases) and upper ureteral (10 cases) stones (25...
متن کاملA Case of Laparoscopic Ureteric Reimplantation in a Solitary Urinary System
Ureteric strictures can be caused by traumatic pelvic surgery, urolithiasis and instrumentation. There are various treatment options for ureteric stricture, including laparoscopic ureteric reimplantation. A 56-year-old female with a history of chronic left pelviureteric junction obstruction presented with urosepsis secondary to right-sided urolithiasis. The patient had a left nephrectomy and de...
