Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Ureteral Reconstruction: а systematic review of literature

Abstract: IntroductionTo review the literature, as well as to analyze and compare available data on robot-assisted laparoscopic (RAL) surgery versus open surgery, carried out in ureteral reconstructions in terms of different surgical characteristics.Materials and methodsEligible studies, published between 1997 and July 2016, were retrieved through MEDLINE by applying predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria with the English language restriction. Publications on RAL surgeries, carried out in different ureteral reco… Show more

“…In cases where the IUTI reconstruction is postponed, the subsequent referral of the patient to a center with expertise in minimally invasive robotic urologic surgery shows excellent outcomes [ 133 , 134 ]. Even catastrophic iatrogenic IUTI can be managed successfully if prompt recognition and successful management are adopted [ 135 ].…”

“…However, endoscopic treatment, considered the least-invasive option, may have reduced success rates when URSL is the underlying cause of US [6]. Traditional surgical techniques, including open ureteral reimplantation and laparoscopic ureteral reconstruction, have been employed to manage complex or recurrent US [7,8], although they have inherent limitations, including extended hospital stays, increased postoperative pain, and prolonged recovery periods [9,10]. Consequently, robot-assisted 2 of 11 ureteral reconstruction has emerged as a viable option with favorable outcomes because of the advantages of three-dimensional vision, magnified visibility, and adjunct near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging [9][10][11][12].…”
