Robotic revision of vesicourethral stricture after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Abstract

cm before anastomosis. During the urethrocystography, no micturition occurred, so it was necessary to position an epicystostomy. A standard transperitoneal robotic approach was planned to correct the vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis. After removing the suprapubic catheter, the first step was the dissection of the bladder from the walls of the pelvis, anteriorly and laterally, trying to identify the levator ani muscle and the correct anatomy, which was very difficult due to fibro - sis and adhesions. We opened the cystotomy site close to the bladder neck to highlight the anatomy of the bladder neck and the bladder more clearly regarding the position of the urethral orifice.
