Ureteroscopically assisted totally laparoscopic appendicocecostomy: a minimally-invasive approach to an intra-operative complication.

Received June 2010 Accepted November 2010 INTRODUCTION Mitrofanoff appendicocecostomy technique, as an efficient and durable continent catheterizable stoma to the urinary reservoir, has been traditionally done through an open Pfannenstiel or low midline abdominal incision.(1) However, in recent years, anecdotal cases of laparoscopic-assisted, roboticassisted, and totally laparoscopic Mitrofanoff appendicovesicostomy have been reported.(2-5)
