mtgs, many ? about why SP for recon. very useful for avoiding adhesions. Right ureteroenteric stricture repair after open APR, recognized enterotomy. Full length, uncut 108 mins. youtu.be/S1cP1KCajYo?... via

At #EAU25, I spoke about the concept of non-transection for pyeloplasty. Here is a case were the ureter has been transected already so a flap is ideal. SP Left Pyeloplasty Y-V after Indiana Pouch youtu.be/cR5xsokU3Yk?... via

Why does a hydrocelectomy require an incision the size of the hydrocele? Simple technique to aspirate the fluid to minimize incision size and trauma to the scrotum. Full case filmed with Apple Vision Pro. youtu.be/j_0omR5AfOg

Placement of ureteral stents during recon makes the surgeon feel safer, but it may increase the risk of ascending infections. I've moved towards fewer stents for routine cases.
