Intraperitoneal laparoscopic single-site lymph node dissection in modified supine position during laparoscopic radical nephroureterectomy

Technique modifications that aim to improve ergonomics of the surgical procedure without repositioning the upper tract urothelial carcinoma patients remain a challenge to urologists. We offer a novel technique to perform intraperitoneal laparoscopic single-site radical nephroureterectomy and pelvic lymph nodes dissection/retroperitoneal lymph nodes dissection in a supine position. Our novel technique is feasible and offers a significant improvement in operative efficiency, particularly in patients with locally advanced disease.
