Robotic-assisted pyeloplasty for ureteropelvic junction obstruction

Intraoperative image of robotic-assisted pyeloplasty to correct a left ureteropelvic junction obstruction showing suturing of anastomosis of the ureter to the renal pelvis after excising the intrinsic narrowing. Note that the JJ stent has been placed across the new anastomosis, with one end in the bladder (for later retrieval) and the other end curling in the renal pelvis.
