Robotic Ureteral Reimplantation

Abstract

Minimally invasive techniques have gained popularity in pediatric surgery. Among these, is the robotic approach for ureteral reimplantation in children with vesico-ureteral reflux. We describe main indications of this surgery, our surgical technique as well as trouble shooting of anatomical variants and the post-operative management. We also provide a description of other techniques described in the literature and a brief review of outcomes of published series.
