[Vesico-urethral anastomosis during total laparoscopic prostatectomy].
Vesico-urethral anastomosis is the last step of radical prostatectomy. Whatever the approach, radical prostatectomy remains a difficult surgical intervention. The dissection steps are similar whatever the selected access, open or laparostopic. Laparoscopic anastomosis requires specific skills that must be adequately mastered by the surgeon before starting any laparoscopic radical prostatectomy program. Pelvi-trainers allow training on the anastomosis technique, with reproducible results. This chapter presents the key points for laparoscopic vesico-urethral anastomosis.
