“…After 135 RAKTs, the authors report no surgical site infections in the robotic group in patients with a mean body mass index (BMI) of 43 kg/m 2 83. Sood et al85 also noted similar reductions in analgesic use, blood loss, and complications in patients undergoing robot-assisted transplantation vs open renal transplantation. RAKT seems to be a safe approach with a reduced complication rate in patients with obesity.…”

This paper examines the current role of robot-assisted renal surgery as complex and partial nephrectomies, including vena cava thrombus, combined nephroureterectomies, living donor nephrectomy, autotransplantation, and difficult anatomy as in patients with obesity or adhesions. Indications for robot-assisted renal surgery are comparable to those of conventional laparoscopic approaches. A reduction in the learning curve leads to a stabilization of the procedure and further increases the number of minimally invasive procedures performed. A Medline literature search for publications on the field of robotic kidney surgery has been performed using the Mesh terms: robotic surgical procedures and kidney. Future directions include progress in robotic technology and instrumentation with further miniaturization of robotic procedures as laparoendoscopic single-site interventions and progress in image-guided robotic surgery.

Anterior Nutcracker Syndrome (NCS) can occur when the aorta and superior mesenteric artery compress the left renal vein. Loin pain hematuria syndrome (LPHS) occurs as kidney pain resulting from a past insult to the kidney, most commonly from nephrolithiasis. We herein present a case of previously treated NCS. Three months after treatment with GVT, the pelvic congestion was resolved but left flank pain continued concerning for undiagnosed Loin Pain Hematuria. Additionally, we present a treatment algorithm that provides a differential pathway for diagnosis and treatment of combined NCS and LPHS.

Other common indications for KAT include renal, upper ureteral masses in solitary functioning kidneys, bilateral neoplastic involvement of the kidneys, ureteral defects secondary to metastatic abdominal malignancies, vascular injuries and vascular disorders 5,6 . Ex‐vivo surgery has advantages of operating on a bloodless organ ensuring optimal exposure, precise dissection and micro vascular reconstruction 5 .…”
