We report a case of impending extrapericardial cardiac tamponade secondary to traumatic sternal fracture with expanding mediastinal hematoma.

Article Synopsis
- Robot-assisted extravesical ureteral reimplantation (REVUR) is presented as a beneficial alternative to traditional open surgery for children with complex obstructed megaureter (COM), which may require ureteral dismembering or tapering.
- In a study of 16 pediatric patients (mostly boys), REVUR was successfully performed without complications, with a median surgery time of around 220 minutes and a hospital stay of about 3.8 days.
- Post-surgery, all patients experienced symptom relief and improved ultrasound results, with only a small percentage facing minor complications, indicating REVUR's effectiveness and safety for treating obstructive ureteral issues.
