## Resource

Robotic technology is expanding what’s possible in reconstructive urology, prompting surgeons to rethink traditional approaches and consider new minimally invasive procedures. In this episode of BackTable Urology, Dr. Ziho Lee joins host Dr. George Koch to explore the rapid evolution of robotic reconstructive surgery and its expanding role in complex pelvic and retroperitoneal procedures.They discuss the the role of single-port platforms, new strategies for managing ureteral strictures and urinary diversion, and how research, training, and patient-reported outcomes are shaping the future of minimally invasive urologic care. --- Get the BackTable apphttps://www.backtable.com/app --- Timestamps00:00 - Introduction03:10 - Bridging Reconstruction and Robotics07:41 - Where Robots Help Most14:33 - Ureteral Rest16:41 - 20% Nephrectomy Rule19:04 - Single Port Indications20:55 - Ileal Ureter Tips and Tricks22:34 - Robotic Reconstruction Course28:55 - Case: VUAS Repair39:35 - Final Advice --- ResourcesUreteral Rest is Associated With Improved Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Robotic Ureteral Reconstruction of Proximal and Middle Ureteral Strictureshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33639184/ --- BackTable Urology is the go-to podcast for urologists, urologic oncologists, and urogynecologists.
