Urologic Robotic Surgery(Hardcover)

Laparoscopy has allowed surgeons to perform major surgical procedures through small incisions. The introduction of
laparoscopy has revolutionized the field of minimally invasive surgery. Urologic Robotic Surgery presents accepted
robotic applications to treat common urological problems. Accomplished authors demonstrate their expertise in basic
instrumentation and techniques, potential applications and contraindications, with attention to patient positioning and
trocar placement. Despite the increasing popularity of this technology, there remains a dearth of literature available
to surgeons and patients. Urologic Robotic Surgery reveals the critical steps for each procedure, reviews robotic
suturing, complications, training and credentialing.
