ABSTRACT
STUDY OBJECTIVE:
To demonstrate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic robotic assisted approach to urinary tract endometriosis.DESIGN:
This is an educational video to explain the main steps of robotic assisted ureteroneocystostomy owing to endometriosis.SETTING:
Tertiary care university hospital. A patient written consent was obtained on March 9, 2021. The local institutional review board confirmed that the video met the ethical criteria.INTERVENTIONS:
Laparoscopic robotic assisted resection of uterosacral ligament endometriotic nodule, left terminal partial ureterectomy, partial cystectomy, and ureteroneocystostomy.CONCLUSION:
This video shows a stepwise approach to laparoscopic robotic assisted urinary tract endometriosis management demonstrating its feasibility and safety. Urinary tract endometriosis affect only the 0.3% to 6% of women affected by endometriosis, among which the most common localization is the bladder (84%-90%) [1]. The ureteral compression is rare but can lead to obstruction up to silent loss of renal function [2], which is one of the main factors to take into account in the management of this disease [3].Palavras-chave
