Learning outcomes
The objectives of the course are improving the theoretical and practical knowledge about prostate, kidney and bladder cancers focusing on the most innovative aspects of robotic surgical approaches (robotic radical prostatectomy, robotic partial nephrectomy, robotic radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion)
The robotic approach to the genito-urinary malformation of the upper urinary tract will be extensively discussed and showed by surgical videos
Course contents
The pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction represents a relevant pathology in urology and it affects manly childs or young adults. This disease is related to the risk of impairment of renal function and in these cases it should be surgically correct.
The pyeloplasty (open or with mini-invasive technique, both laparoscopic and robotic) is the gold standard of surgical treatment.
The aim of this course is to discuss the eziology, the clinical implication and the minimally invasive robotic surgery in order to correct this malformation.
Readings/Bibliography
powerpoints and surgical videos will be available for the students
Teaching methods
Frontal lessons will take place at Aula Corrado, Pad 1 Policlinico Sant'Orsola- Malpighi, with powerpoint and didactical video-materials of robotic interventions.
Students will have the oportunity to assist to robotic surgery directly in operating room at Nuove Patologie Pad 5 second floor Piastra B (policlinico Sant'Orsola-Malpighi).
