Bladder function after total urogenital mobilization for persistent cloaca.

15 Sep 2009 PURPOSE: Total urogenital mobilization has achieved widespread use because it avoids surgical complications of vaginal reconstruction. We used urodynamic studies to assess bladder function and urological outcomes after definitive repair by total ... Read more...

The Kelly technique of bladder exstrophy repair: continence, cosmesis and pelvic organ prolapse outcomes.

16 Aug 2009 PURPOSE: The Kelly technique of radical soft tissue mobilization, an alternative to osteotomy and modern staged repair, has been used extensively at our tertiary referral center for bladder exstrophy in the last 2 decades. We present what is to our ... Read more...

Continued improvement of perioperative, pathological and continence outcomes during 700 robot-assisted radical prostatectomies.

30 Jul 2009 BACKGROUND: Several robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) series have reviewed the impact of the initial learning curve on perioperative outcomes. However, little is known about the impact of experience on urinary and sexual outcomes. Herein, ... Read more...
