Abstract:
The use of robot-assisted surgery (RAS) by paediatric urologists is increasing. This mini review looks at the current status of RAS in paediatric urology. The challenges involved in RAS use in children are reviewed, as well as the indications for and feasibility of procedures performed and, where possible, outcomes with RAS. PATIENT SUMMARY: The current status of robot-assisted surgery (RAS) in paediatric urology, together with the challenges in using RAS for children is outlined in this mini review. Innovative adaptation has pushed the boundaries as regards the feasibility of RAS procedures in children with good outcomes.
