Hourglass appearance in cystocele with an impacted vesical calculus.

A 62-year-old hypertensive female presented with a mass protruding from the vagina for the past 20 years. She complained of dysuria and urinary incontinence for the past 3 months. There was no history of surgical intervention in the past.

Unusual lymphocele following radical cystectomy with orthotopic neobladder.

A 65-year-old male patient, a known case of carcinoma bladder, underwent radical cystectomy with ileal neobladder in 2016. Eleven lymph nodes were identified in the specimen. Histopathology revealed reactive lymphadenitis with sinus histiocytosis.

A Prospective Comparative Study of Continuous and Interrupted Suturing in Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty in 3D Era.

Introduction: Laparoscopic pyeloplasty is becoming the gold standard procedure for pelviureteric junction obstruction. The outcome of pyeloplasty depends on precise pyeloureteral anastomosis. Though in open pyeloplasty interrupted or continuous suture are practiced, in most of the laparoscopic or laparoscopy-assisted robotic pyeloplasty continuous suturing is practiced.

Laparoscopic adenomectomy in BPH - Does it have a role today?

Symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is managed medically worldwide, but transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) is the gold standard in refractory cases. Holmium laser enucleation of prostate (HoLEP), laser vaporization are other options which are widely practiced. However in larger glands which are more than 80 g, open adenomectomy is still practiced.

Laparoscopic gastrocystoplasty for tuberculous contracted bladder.

The stomach is the preferred augmentation option for a contracted bladder in a patient with renal failure. A 49-year-old female presented with right solitary functioning kidney with tuberculous lower ureteric stricture and contracted bladder. Her creatinine was 2.

Laparoscopic Nephrectomy with Adrenalectomy for Synchronous Adrenal Myelolipoma and Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Introduction. Adrenal myelolipomas are uncommon nonfunctioning tumors of the adrenal. Synchronous renal cell carcinomas with adrenal myelolipomas are very rare.

A comparison of continuous and interrupted suturing in laparoscopic pyeloplasty.

Background: Laparoscopic pyeloplasty is one of the most common reconstructive procedures performed by urologists. Both continuous and interrupted sutures are being practiced for ureteropelvic anastomosis. The success rate and the complications associated with the suturing technique needs evaluation.

Laparoscopic undiversion in a child with sacral agenesis into augmentation cystoplasty.

Introduction: In neurogenic bladder with compromised renal function or when complex reconstruction is not preferred, ileal conduit is considered. Undiversion is performed when the patient prefers the procedure, once the renal function improves, or when complications resulting from diversion are present.

Case Description: We present the case of a 10-y-old boy with sacral agenesis, who underwent laparoscopic-assisted ileal conduit diversion in 2006, because he had a grossly unstable, small-capacity bladder and was not compliant with intermittent self-catheterization.

Laparoscopic diverticulocystoplasty for low compliance bladder in a child.

Low compliance bladder with a posterior urethral valve is a common association. Augmentation cystoplasty is one of the management options. We present the case report of a 4-y-old boy who presented with low compliance bladder, bladder diverticulum, right obstructive megaureter, and left grade IV reflux, 6 mo following PUV fulguration.

Early-onset port site (drain site) hernia in pediatric laparoscopy: a case series.

Introduction: Laparoscopic procedures for children with urological problems are common under the present conditions. Laparoscopic surgery is associated with complications such as port site hernia that are not associated with open surgery. Drain site hernia is one variety of port site hernia.

Cost reductive laparoendoscopic single site surgery endotrainer and animal lab training-our methodology.

Laparoendoscopic single site surgery (LESS) is a new avenue in laparoscopic urology. The main advantage is the enhanced cosmetic benefits of single hidden scar. Lately many papers are being published on various procedures done by LESS.

Modified device-free HAL: an innovative cost-reductive approach.

Hand-assisted laparoscopy (HAL) has been in vogue since 1994. The major advantages are tactile sensation, quicker dissection, and easy removal of specimen. These advantages could not be availed in developing countries due to the cost of the available HAL devices.

Laparoscopy-assisted ileal conduit in sacral agenesis.

Sacral agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly. The neurologic deficits are usually static. However, there are reports of progressive neurologic deterioration.

Laparoscopic boari flap repair: report of 3 cases.

Purpose: Boari flap reimplantation is one of the options for ureteric reimplantation when the diseased ureteric segment is long. Open Boari flap reimplantation is well established. In this paper, we describe laparoscopic Boari flap reimplantation in 3 patients.

Laparoscopic ureterocystoplasty before kidney transplantation.

Purpose: To describe the technique of total laparoscopic ureterocystoplasty.

Materials And Methods: Laparoscopic ureterocystoplasty was performed to optimize the bladder function before kidney transplantation in a 23-year-old man. This patient had undergone bilateral cutaneous ureterostomy with fulguration of a posterior urethral valve at the age of 11 months.

Laparoscopic repair of vesicouterine fistula--a case report.

We report the technique of laparoscopic repair of vesicouterine fistula. A 30 year old lady presented with incapacitating cyclical pain for one and a half years. She had undergone cesarean section 18 months ago.

Laparoscopic pyeloureterostomy: experience in three cases.

Purpose: To report our experience with transperitoneal laparoscopic pyeloureterostomy for duplication of the collecting system.

Patients And Methods: Since January 2003, two adult patients with incomplete duplication of ureter with ureteropelvic junction obstruction of the lower moiety and a 4-month-old male baby with complete duplication of the ureter with reflux in the lower moiety underwent transperitoneal laparoscopic pyeloureterostomy. The baby also had excision of the lower-moiety ureter.
