8th Annual International Symposium on Robotic Urologic Surgery

8th Annual International Symposium on Robotic Urologic Surgery is organized by Cleveland Clinic Foundation and would be held during Oct 21 - 22, 2016 at InterContinental Hotel And Bank Of America Conference Center, Cleveland, Ohio, United States of America.

The target audience for this medical events basically for urologists who have experience with urologic surgery seeking to acquire or enhance their abilities to perform robotic procedures in particular robotic partial nephrectomy, nephroureterectomy, radical prostatectomy, and radical cystectomy are encouraged to attend. This CME Conference has been approved with a maximum of 14.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits. AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

This course is designed for urologists who are seeking to acquire knowledge or enhance their abilities to perform robotic urologic surgery. Didactic presentations will cover robotic technology, patient selection, indications and contraindications, patient preparation and positioning, OR setup, stepwise surgical techniques of various robotic kidney, adrenal, prostate and bladder surgeries.

Objectives :

• Define appropriate patient selection, the indications and contraindications of robotic urologic surgery
• Explain patient preparation, OR setup, robotic instrumentation and patient positioning
• Identify the surgical techniques needed for robotic partial nephrectomy, robotic adrenalectomy, robotic pyeloplasty
• Demonstrate the complications associated with robotic renal and pelvic surgery, their prevention, recognition and management
