A multi-institutional European comparative study of open versus robotic-assisted laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation in children with high grade (IV-V) vesicoureteral reflux.

Introduction: Traditionally, open ureteral reimplantation (OUR) has been the standard treatment for primary vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) requiring reimplantation. Robotic-assisted laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation (RALUR) is gaining popularity and high success rates have been reported.

Objective: In this multi-institutional study, we aimed to compare the perioperative and postoperative outcomes of OUR and RALUR for high-grade (IV + V) VUR in children.

Robotic simple prostatectomy is a safe and effective technique for benign prostatic hyperplasia: Our single center initial short-term follow-up results for 42 patients.

Objective: Benign prostatic hyperplasia is one of the biggest problems of aging men. Prostate surgery is now well defined in the case of failure of medical therapy. Robotic simple prostatectomy is a minimally invasive surgical method with an alternative to open simple prostatectomy in large prostate volumes.

Is fluoroscopy necessary during flexible ureteroscopy for the treatment of renal stones?

Objective: To investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of flexible ureteroscopy (fURS) without fluoroscopy during the treatment of renal stones.

Patients And Methods: Between April 2013 and August 2018, 744 patients' data were evaluated retrospectively. Of these, 576 patients were included in the study.

Does biofeedback therapy improve quality of life in children with lower urinary tract dysfunction: parents' perspective.

Introduction: Lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) is a situation that often disrupts the quality of life (QoL) of both the child and the family with daytime and nighttime incontinence. Although the first-line treatment option for children with LUTD is standard urotherapy, biofeedback therapy can be performed in children in which standard urotherapy failed.

Objective: We studied the biofeedback success in children with LUTD according to parents' expressions.
