Atlas of Robotic Urologic Surgery

Abstract

This chapter is intended for use as an instructional description of robot-assisted pyeloplasty including the intra- and peri-operative management and the special technical considerations involved in performing robot-assisted pyeloplasty. A review of literature since the inception of robotic pyeloplasty has noted advantages of shorter suturing time, improved learning curve, and improved visualization.
