DOI: 10.1097/mou.0000000000000357
Abstract: Purpose of review Although open ureteral reimplantation remains the gold standard for surgical correction of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), robotic-assisted laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation (RALUR) holds promise and is becoming more widely utilized. The present article outlines… read more here.
