DESCRIPTION:
Robotic Donor Nephrectomy - A Practical Guide is a user friendly manual aimed to give both novice and mature urologists a clear and comprehensive description of robot-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy through a step-by-step approach. Novel techniques such as the Laparo-Endoscopic Single-Site (LESS) surgery are examined and the editors also look at the well established multi-ports techniques using the da Vinci Surgical system.
Robotic Donor Nephrectomy - A Practical Guide will help young urologists gain better understanding of the techniques of robotic-assisted surgery, and support older urologists in ""crossing the border"" towards laparoscopic surgery, particularly for delicate procedures such as the donor nephrectomy.
CONTENTS:
1. Surgical Anatomy of the Retroperitoneum
2. Pre-Operative Investigations
3. Anesthesiological Aspects Relevant for Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy
4. Robotic Instruments
5. Surgical Steps
