Robotic conservative treatment for prostatourethrorectal fistula: original technique step by step

Conclusions: Robotic conservative treatment of PURF seems to be safe and feasible (2, 3). Robotic approach allows accurate surgical dissection, through easier access to the rectal-prostatic plane, reducing the need for resection. To our knowledge, this is the first robotic conservative treatment for PURF reproducing the same steps of laparotomic approach with the advantages of minimally invasive technique (4).
