Comparison of intraoperative and short-term postoperative outcomes between robot-assisted laparoscopic multi-port pyeloplasty using the da Vinci Si system and single-port pyeloplasty using the da Vinci SP system in children

Abstract

This study confirmed that pyeloplasty using the da Vinci® SP system can be started by robotic surgeons who can overcome the learning curve. Robot-assisted laparoscopic single-port pyeloplasty is feasible in noninfant pediatric patients.
