Single-port Robot-assisted Ureteral Reimplantation via Low Anterior Access: Step-by-step Procedure and Preliminary Comparative Results.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objective

Multiport robotic management of distal ureteral strictures is still burdened by the mandatory transperitoneal approach and the steep Trendelenburg patient position. Our aim was to describe the largest series of patients treated with single-port robot-assisted ureteral reimplantation (SP-RAUR) via a supine extraperitoneal approach, with a focus on the surgical technique, perioperative surgical outcomes, and functional results.

Methods and surgical procedure

Clinical and surgical data for all consecutive adult patients treated with SP-RAUR between January 2021 and September 2023 were prospectively collected. Patients were stratified by surgical approach into low anterior access (LAA) and transperitoneal (TP) groups. Ureteral reimplantation was performe
