Simplified Concepts and Management Algorithms in Hypospadias

Video 1: Induction of an artificial erection using a large-bore (21-gauge or larger) butterfly needle with injectable saline

Video 2: A dorsal inlay graft (DIG) is created

Video 3: Tubularized Incised Inlay Play (TIP repair) or simple tubularization (Thiersch Duplay) is performed

Video 4: Midline dorsal plication is performed

Video 5: Tranverse incision of tunica albuginea (DTITA) all the way to the erectile tissue, leaving intact its deepest and thinnest layer

Video 6: Once the curvature is successfully repaired, the preputial graft is applied

Video 7: Vacuum physiotherapy is initiated 3 weeks postoperatively, twice a day and with 20 induced erections each session

Video 8: In cases of proximal hypospadias, both dorsal dartos and ventral Buck’s fascia flaps can be short and underdeveloped, and tunica vaginalis is used

Video 9: Urethroplasty and excision of upper lip graft frequently utilized

Robotic-Assisted Bladder Diverticulectomy

Video 1: Intravesical Approach: Once the BD is completely removed, the opening of the bladder is sutured with 3.0 V-Lock suture in two layers in a continuous fashion.

Video 2: Extravesical Approach: The BD is fully removed and the opening of the bladder is sutured
in a running fashion.

3. Fluorescence-Guided Extended Pelvic Lymphadenectomy During Robotic Radical Prostatectomy

Video: This video details ICG-guided extended pelvic lymph node dissection during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

4. Erectile Dysfunction, Surgical and Regenerative Therapy

Video 1: All the procedures start with accurate disinfection of the field and bladder drainage inserting a 16 Fr Foley urethral catheter.

Video 2: The skin incision represents the next step (penoscrotal approach; infrapubic approach, or subcoronal techniques).

Video 3: Corporotomy may now start.

Video 4: Thereafter, dilatators are used to create the intracorporeal space and a Furlow insertion tool is used to measure the corpora length to choose the cylinder size.

Video 5: The next step consists of the pump placement.

Video 6: The reservoir placement is an essential step during the penile prosthesis implant.

Video 7: The cylinders, pump, and reservoir are all interconnected with kink-resistant tubes, and inflation and deflation of the device is done multiple times to test the correct functioning and positioning.
