Abstract

The introduction of the da Vinci Surgical System to perform complex reconstructive procedures, such as repair of ureteropelvic junction obstruction, has helped to overcome some of the technical challenges associated with laparoscopy. We review our large multi-institutional experience with long-term followup of robotic dismembered pyeloplasty. A total of 140 patients from 3 university medical centers underwent robotic dismembered pyeloplasty. An institutional review board approved retrospective chart review was performed to collect demographic, preoperative, operative and postoperative data. Patients were analyzed as an entire cohort and then divided into various subgroups. Of the cases 117 (84.6%) were primary repairs and 23 (16.4%) were secondary repairs. There were 13 (9.3%) patients who underwent concomitant stone extraction and 5 (3.6%) procedures were performed on patients with solitary kidneys. A crossing vessel was found in 77 (55%) patients. Mean operative time was 217 minutes (range 80 to 510), estimated blood loss was 59.4 ml (range 10 to 600), mean length of hospital stay 2.1 days (range 0.75 to 7) and mean followup was 29 months (range 3 to 63). Radiographic resolution of obstruction on first postoperative diuretic ...Continue Reading

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
