Abstract:Objective:To compare conventional laparoscopic pyeloplasty with robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty in managing the ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO).Methods:Between July 2012 and March 2012, we involved 7 UPJO patients in this study. 5 were performed conventional laparoscopic pyeloplasty, and 2 were performed robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty. All cases were performed by the surgeon who has extensive experience in conventional laparoscopic pyeloplasty.Results:All the 7 operations were performed successfully. The average suturing time for robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty was 19 (15-23) min, and 45 (39-60) min for conventional laparoscopic pyeloplasty respectively.The average blood loss in these two groups were 50 (30-70)ml compared 150 (100-200) ml; and the average extubation times were 2 days compared 4 days.Conclusions:Robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty could reduce the suturing time and blood loss and achieves more accurate suture by more flexible operation.
