Robot-Assisted Augmentation Ileocystoplasty (AIC) for Genitourinary Tuberculosis Using a New Robot Platform

Genitourinary tuberculosis (GUTB) can lead to a severely contracted bladder, often necessitating augmentation ileocystoplasty (AIC) for reconstruction.Robot-assisted laparoscopic techniques offer several potential advantages over open surgery, including enhanced visualisation and improved dexterity for executing complex reconstructive procedures.The authors present a case of a 31-year male with GUTB who underwent robot-assisted right nephroureterectomy and AIC on a new robotic platform.The patient's postoperative course was uneventful, and at the three-month follow-up, he was doing well.This case demonstrates the feasibility and potential benefits of robotic-assisted AIC on a new robotic platform, particularly for patients with a small, contracted bladder secondary to GUTB.Larger studies are required to validate this technique further.
