Miami Saturday Session 12 Reconstructive Robotic Surgery 1

Exploring the evolving landscape of reconstructive robotic surgery, this session examines three cases that each address complex urologic reconstruction from a different angle. Dr. Marco Martiriggiano opens with ileal neoureter reconstruction performed after complete traumatic avulsion, a challenging repair that requires rebuilding urinary tract continuity from severely damaged tissue. Dr. Francesco Brucchi follows with a robotic single-port suprapubic extended totally extraperitoneal repair technique, adapting a hernia repair approach for use in a broader reconstructive context. Dr. Anand Patil closes the session with robot-assisted ileal ureter reconstruction for long-segment ureteric stricture, an approach that offers an alternative when conventional ureteral repair is not feasible. Moderated by Dr. Vipin Tyagi, the discussion highlights how robotic platforms are enabling increasingly ambitious reconstructive solutions for patients who might once have faced limited options. Reconstructive urologists, trauma surgeons, and robotic surgery fellows will find this session particularly relevant, offering a clear look at how far reconstructive technique has advanced in addressing complex traumatic and structural urologic injury.
