Case description

This video shows a robotic vesicoscopic Cohen’s reimplantation for pediatric vesicoureteric reflux. Vesicoscopic reimplantation (VR) entails placing the access ports inside the bladder and inflating with CO2 to create pneumo-vesicum. The space thus created makes it possible to perform reconstructive procedures entirely within the bladder. Port placement and the reconstructive procedures are technically challenging in pediatric age group. We aim to demonstrate the surgical procedure of Robotic Vesicoscopic Reimplantation (RVR), showing the technical aspects of the procedure. The procedure also shows how the robotic instruments make this procedure much easier to accomplish the reconstructive target of reimplantation compared to the same procedure being done laparoscopically.
