Buccal graft ureteroplasty makes ureteral recon simpler, even for long strictures. In this case, 5cm stricture, prior pyeloplasty. Supine retro approach. Full length case, 93 mins @societyGURS via @YouTube.

During reconstructive surgery, sometimes you want to make a sharp cut, but how to get the scalpel blade inside safely? Use a sheath--made from sputum trap tubing, closed on one end with suture. Idea inspired by discussion w @UABUroOnc @ZLeeGU during @surgquest webinar.

Ureteroenteric strictures can be performed in a straightforward fashion using SP robot w endoscopy to ID ureter/diversion. Narrated video @surgquest Bilateral ureteroenteric stricture after neobladder, full length uncut, 70 mins.

Great video on performing pyeloplasty without transection via Y to V advancement flap. Congrats to @UrologieParis Looking forward to seeing the SP retro version next!.

Fantastic talk by @md_eun on buccal graft ureteroplasty. It’s a story of innovation, friendship, and ultimately great patient benefit.
It’s been >decade since buccal mucosa graft ureteroplasty was first performed robotically by @lee_c_zhao and @mdstifelman. Since then it’s now the standard approach for most ureteral strictures. I just presented this at the AUA. Now available on VuMedi.

I watch surgical videos to improve technique. Question is where to find content. Join @surgquest for high quality surgical education videos. Clip from my narrated SP retro pyeloplasty, non-transecting with mucosal advancement and Y-V flap. Full length uncut 24 mins.
