Background Increased uptake of robotic surgery has led to interest in learning curves for
robot-assisted procedures. Learning curves, however, are often poorly defined. This …

In the last decade, management of congenital UPJ obstruction has become progressively
observational despite the lack of precise predictors of outcome. While it is clear that many …

Purpose: We performed a multi-institutional assessment of the outcomes and complications
of robot-assisted laparoscopic extravesical ureteral reimplantation for vesicoureteral reflux in …

Background: Urology has been at the forefront of adopting laparoscopic and robot-assisted
techniques to improve patient outcomes. This systematic review aimed to examine the …

Background With the rapid adoption of the robotic surgery, more and more learning curve
(LC) papers are being published but there is no set definition of what should constitute a …

Purpose: Robot-assisted laparoscopic extravesical ureteral reimplantation has been
proposed as a minimally invasive alternative to open ureteral reimplantation for correcting …

Although technology and computation power have become more and more present in our
daily lives, we have yet to see the same tendency in robotics applied to health care. In this …

Background Although shown to be safe in infancy, robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty
(RALP) for ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is most commonly performed in older …

Background: Robot-assisted surgery demands a specific skillset of surgical knowledge,
skills, and attitudes from the robotic surgeon to function as part of the robotic team and for …

Background Initial results in pediatric surgery are encouraging, particularly in the field of
pediatric urology. However, there is limited experience with its application in infants and …
