“…Transvesical laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation, in which the bladder is insufflated with carbon dioxide and ureteral reimplantation is performed by using a combination of intravesical cystoscopy and laparoscopy, has also been reported with mixed results [54,55]. In their series of 29 children with 46 refluxing ureters undergoing transvesical laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation, Norris and Ost and Gatti et al reported success rates of 47% with the Gil-Vernet technique and 83% with the Cohen technique, with operative times nearly twice those of standard open techniques [12,54].…”

Current Trends in Pediatric Minimally Invasive Urologic Surgery

Over the past two decades, laparoscopic and robotic surgery in children has been described as a viable minimally invasive alternative to open surgery for many pediatric urologic conditions. With the goal of reducing the morbidity associated with open surgery, minimally invasive surgery in children is increasingly being performed as laparoscopic and robotic patients appear to be experiencing shorter hospital stays, decreased pain medication requirements, and the potential for improved cosmesis. This article provides an overview of the existing literature in laparoscopic and robotic-assisted laparoscopic urologic surgery in children. Laparoscopic and robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery appears to be safe and effective in children for a wide range of ablative and reconstructive procedures. Conventional laparoscopic surgery is effective for ablative procedures, while robotic surgery may be ideally suited for reconstructive cases requiring advanced suturing and dissection. Overall, more prospective studies are needed to study the long-term outcomes of minimally invasive surgery in pediatric patients, and the appropriate use of the available technology.

“…Shortly after the initial reports of extravesical ureteral reimplantation, experience with a combined transvesical and transurethral endoscopic approach to ureteral reimplantation was reported by two groups. [1112] In 1996, Cartwright et al ., reported their experience in 22 children who underwent percutaneous endoscopic trigonoplasty. [12] Reflux was of moderate grade in most cases and resolved in 20 of 32 ureters at six months, for a resolution rate of 62.5%.…”

Laparoscopy in the management of pediatric vesicoureteral reflux

2007

The prevalence of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) has been estimated as. 4 to 1.8% among the pediatric population. In children with urinary tract infection the prevalence is typically from 30-50% with higher incidence occurring in infancy. When correction of VUR is determined to be necessary, traditionally open ureteral reimplantation by a variety of techniques has been the mainstay of treatment. This approach is justified because surgical correction affords a very high success rate of 99% in experienced hands and a low complication rate. In that context the purpose of this review article is to highlight the use of laparoscopy and robot-assisted techniques to perform ureteric reimplantation for the management of pediatric VUR. A detailed review of recent literature on the subject is performed to find out various aspects of minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of VUR, highlighting evolution of management approaches, operative steps, complications, results and the current status in clinical practice. We also share our experience on the subject.
