WHAT'S KNOWN ON THE SUBJECT? AND WHAT DOES STUDY ADD?: Open reconstructive surgery of the lower ureteric segment in adults often requires large incisions, as basic prerequisite for such complex procedures is wide exposure. Published experience on minimally invasive techniques this challenging surgical field, e.g. conventional laparoscopy or robot-assisted laparoscopy, still remains limited. We report our from one largest single institution series distal ureter adults, with a special focus...
To describe the reconstruction of long ureteric strictures using buccal mucosal patch grafts and to report intermediate-term functional outcome.Between November 2000 October 2006 seven omental wrapping was performed in five women (one with bilateral strictures) one man. The surgical steps stricture omentum are described detail. Stricture recurrence defined as persistent impaired drainage displayed by imaging techniques or necessity prolong JJ stenting. Patency rates recurrence-free survival...
To evaluate early postoperative morbidity in patients undergoing either robot-assisted (RARC) or open radical cystectomy (ORC) for bladder cancer.A total of 100 underwent RARC (between August 2009 and 2012) 42 ORC October 2007 July 2009) as treatment cancer. Data on the patients' peri-operative course were collected prospectively up to 90th day group 60th group. Postoperative complications recorded based Clavien-Dindo classification system. Both groups compared with regard patient tumour...

The marked increase in life expectancy recent years calls for reconsideration decision‐making process treatment prostate cancer, a condition particularly affecting elderly. To date general approach elderly patients has tended to be more conservative, not least as it is generally thought that cancer these less biologically aggressive. present data showed aged ≥70 had aggressive tumours...
With the increasing use of robot-assisted techniques for urologic and gynecologic surgery in patients with severe comorbidities, risk a critical incidence during increases. Due to limited access patient start effective measures treat life-threatening emergency could be delayed. Therefore, we tested management an acute operating room setting full-size simulator six complete teams.A (ISTAN, Meti, CA), modified hold five trocars, was placed regular connected robotic system.

<i>Introduction:</i> To determine the perioperative complications and morbidity of radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) to analyze risk factors for observed complications. <i>Materials Methods:</i> Data 1,000 patients undergoing RRP pelvic lymphadenectomy (pLA) performed by different surgeons same hospital were collected. Uni- multivariate analysis was detect associations between intra- postoperative specific variables. <i>Results:</i> Relevant...
Introduction After the outbreak of COVID-19 unprecedented changes in healthcare systems worldwide were necessary resulting a reduction urological capacities with postponements consultations and surgeries. Material methods An email was sent to 66 hospitals focus on robotic surgery (RS) including link questionnaire (e.g. bed/staff capacity, surgical caseload, protection measures during RS) that covered three time points: representative baseline week prior COVID-19, March 16th-22nd April...
To determine disease progression and survival in patients with lymph node-positive prostate carcinoma after ascending radical retropubic prostatectomy (RP) pelvic lymphadenectomy different forms of postoperative adjuvant treatment.We analysed 82 node metastases at the time surgery who had a RP between 1993 2002. Data from clinical records follow-up questionnaires were used. Overall survival, to biochemical used as endpoints assess outcome. Clinical was defined documented local recurrence or...
Lymph node metastases are common in pelvic urological tumors, and the age-related remodeling process of lymph nodes influences metastatic behavior. The aim this work is to characterize degenerative changes with respect their occurrence extent. A total 5173 390 patients aged 44 79 years (median 68 years, IQR 62–71 years) were histologically examined for structural changes. size, lipomatous atrophy, capsular fibrosis, framework calcifications recorded semi-quantitatively evaluated by age...
We assessed whether changeover from open retropubic [RRP] to robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy [RALP] means a step forward or backward for the initial RALP patients. Therefore first 105 RALPs of an experienced prostatic surgeon and robotic novice-with tutoring in 25 cases-were compared most recent RRPs same surgeon. The groups were comparable with respect patient characteristics postoperative tumor (all P > 0.09). only disadvantage was longer operating time; advantages lower...
Objectives. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether predictions incidence pelvic lymph node metastases in patients with similar prostate cancer characteristics are influenced by extent lymphadenectomy or surgical performance. Material and methods. Data from a database were analyzed investigate associations between metastasis preoperative prostate-specific antigen level, clinical stage, biopsy Gleason score, lymphadenectomy, Subgroups same formed, multivariate analysis...
We report the results of augmented anastomotic repair (AAR) in treatment anterior urethral strictures.In this retrospective study, we evaluated 71 consecutive patients who had undergone AAR between June 2004 and 2013. Medical records were reviewed to identify early postoperative complications based on Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC). Self-developed standardized questionnaires sent referring urologists used collect data late (>90) days. Stricture recurrence (SR) was defined as any...

Because minimally invasive surgery can improve postoperative recovery, it became the preferred technique for patients with significant comorbidities. However, steep Trendelenburg position and abdominal CO2-insufflation lead to a increase in upper airway resistance an alteration of overall lung function. In particular, who already suffer from obstructive disease like sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) might be at risk complications. Therefore, we perioperatively performed spirometric tests OSAS...
