Robotic pyeloplasty learning curve for a pediatric surgeon without previous laparoscopic pyeloplasty experience.

Robotic pyeloplasty has become a technique of choice for pyelo-ureteral junction syndrome treatment in children. Less invasive than open surgery, robotic pyeloplasty also has a lower learning curve than laparoscopic pyeloplasty. This is how a new generation of surgeons without previous laparoscopic pyeloplasty experience has begun training in robotics.
