Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on pediatric robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RALPN) for nonfunctioning kidney segments, reporting on a large series of cases.
- A total of 21 pediatric patients, averaging 4.1 years old, underwent the procedure between 2006 and 2012, with an operative time of about 301 minutes and low blood loss.
- The findings indicate that RALPN has low complication rates, and while postoperative fluid collections can occur, they are typically asymptomatic and can be managed without intervention.
Objective: A novel educational tool, Computer Enhanced Visual Learning (CEVL), has been used to improve resident performance of routine orchiopexy. Our objective was to assess the effect of a CEVL teaching module on the diagnostic accuracy of medical trainees in grading neonatal hydronephrosis on ultrasound using the Society for Fetal Urology (SFU) grading system.
Methods: The authors designed an online-based computerized tutorial to teach the grading of hydronephrosis using multimedia, practice cases and a grading checklist.
