Robotic Buccal Mucosa Graft Ureteroplasty: A Decade of Experience From a Multi-institutional Cohort.

Objective: To characterize a large cohort of patients undergoing robotic buccal mucosa graft ureteroplasty (RU-BMG), determine the technique's durability, and assess the impact of patient- and disease-specific factors on outcomes.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of a multi-institutional database of robotic ureteral reconstruction for patients undergoing RU-BMG. Surgical success was defined as freedom from additional interventions for recurrent ureteral stenosis, such as stent placement, balloon dilation, or further attempts at reconstruction.

Anterolateral Thigh Phalloplasty With Staged Skin Graft Urethroplasty: Technique and Outcomes.

Objective: 1) To describe the authors' technique of anterolateral thigh (ALT) phalloplasty with staged skin graft urethroplasty and 2) to report the surgical outcomes and complications of this technique in a preliminary patient cohort.

Methods: Following IRB (Institutional Review Board) approval, retrospective chart review identified all patients undergoing primary three-stage ALT phalloplasty by the senior authors. Stage I involves single tube, pedicled ALT transfer.

Robotic-Assisted Testicular Autotransplantation.

Silber and Kelly first described the successful autotransplantation of an intra-abdominal testis in 1976. Subsequent authors incorporated laparoscopy and demonstrated the viability of transplanted testes based on serial postoperative exams. We sought to extend this experience with use of the da Vinci surgical robot, thereby demonstrating a novel robotic technique for the management of cryptorchidism.
