Abstract

The gold standard for treatment of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma remains nephroureterectomy with the ipsilateral bladder cuff excision. With the introduction of robot system, robot-assisted surgery has become popular in the management of urological malignancies. We report a single institute experience of robot-assisted nephroureterectomy (RANU) for the treatment of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UC) without re-docking the robot system or reposition of the patient. The perioperative and oncologic outcomes are discussed.
