[Laparoscopic surgery training in pelvitrainer and virtual simulators].

Over the last few decades, there has been a rise in the number of minimally invasive techniques, such as arthroscopy, vascular radiology and our speciality, laparoscopy. Laparoscopy has resulted in a reduction in the damage caused during intervention, with the subsequent reduction in hospital stay, postoperative pain and infections. However, one disadvantage of these techniques is that they require a large investment in instruments and a long and costly training period. In the following chapter, we describe the laparoscopic training process of the medical residents from our Urology Service in the pelvitrainer and virtual simulator.

[Giant stone in a Bricker urinary diversion. Obstruction uropathy as the presenting form].

Bowel is used in urological surgery to replace the bladder, either as a conduit to drain urine to the abdominal wall as a urinary stoma or refashioned to form a substitute bladder. Many factors contribute to stone formation, being urinary stasis, mucus production and bacteriuria the most important. Metabolic changes induced by exposure of segments of the alimentary tract to urine promote struvite, calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate stone formation. Generally, the majority of patients with stones in a urinary diversion can be treated with minimally invasive techniques. Open surgical removal is considered when other modality of treatments cannot be accomplished safely and expeditiously.
