Robotic or Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty is a minimally invasive reconstructive surgery to correct a blockage or narrowing at the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) — the point where the kidney connects to the ureter. This surgery restores normal urine flow from the kidney to the bladder.
Who Needs ?
- UPJ obstruction (congenital or acquired)
- Recurrent flank pain
- Hydronephrosis (swelling of the kidney due to urine buildup)
- Recurrent infections or stones due to poor drainage
- Patients where prior open surgery or endopyelotomy has failed
How the Procedure Works:
- Anesthesia
- Minimally Invasive Access
- Dissection & Reconstruction
- Closure
Advantages:
- High success rate (>90%)
- Minimally invasive (smaller incisions, less pain)
- Shorter hospital stay (1–2 days)
- Faster recovery
- Improved cosmetic outcome
- Better precision with robotic approach
Limitations / Risks:
- Requires specialized equipment and trained surgeon
- Possible complications are Bleeding, Infection,Stent-related
- discomfort and Recurrence of blockage (rare)
- Not ideal in extensively scarred or previously operated areas
