Pyeloplasty
Urology Treatments
Pyeloplasty is a surgical procedure designed to correct a blockage or narrowing at the junction where the renal pelvis connects to the ureter, a condition known as Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction (UPJO). If left untreated, UPJO can lead to urinary retention, kidney stones, infections, and potentially damage to the kidney.
Types of Pyeloplasty Procedures
Open Pyeloplasty: This traditional approach involves making a larger incision in the flank or abdomen to access the kidney and ureter. The surgeon removes the narrowed segment of the ureter and reconstructs the junction with sutures to create a wider opening. Open pyeloplasty allows for direct visualization of the affected area, making it suitable for complex cases.
Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty: In this minimally invasive technique, several small incisions are made in the abdomen. A laparoscope and specialized instruments are inserted through these ports to access and repair the UPJO. This method offers benefits such as smaller incisions, less pain, quicker recovery, and shorter hospital stays compared to open surgery.
Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty: This advanced technique uses robotic arms controlled by the surgeon to enhance precision and dexterity during the procedure. The surgeon operates from a console, manipulating miniature instruments through small incisions in the abdomen. Robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty combines the advantages of minimally invasive surgery with improved control, making it ideal for complex cases requiring high precision.
