Robot-Assisted Right Upper-Pole Heminephrectomy in an 11-Year-Old Girl

Dr. Martin Lacher ·September 17, 2026 ·5 views f 𝕏 in

This video demonstrates robot-assisted right upper-pole heminephrectomy in an 11-year-old girl. The procedure illustrates the robotic approach to partial renal resection in a pediatric patient. The video focuses on operative exposure, identification of the renal anatomy, mobilization of the kidney, and careful dissection of the upper renal moiety. Particular attention is given to identification and control of the relevant vascular and ureteral structures, preservation of the remaining renal tissue, and specimen removal. The case highlights the use of robotic visualization and articulated instruments for precise dissection in pediatric urologic surgery.
