Imaging findings and clinical outcome in three cats with possible inflammatory ureteritis

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Three adult cats presented to our institution for evaluation of non‐specific clinical signs and azotaemia. All cats had sonographic evidence of renal pelvic and ureteral dilation, concerning for a ureteral obstruction without a definitive mechanical cause identified. Anti‐inflammatory doses of corticosteroids were administered over an extended

Retroperitoneal Robot‐Assisted Nephroureterectomy: Technical Description and Single Center Experience

Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Robot‐assisted radical nephroureterectomy (RANU) is increasingly used for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). The retroperitoneal approach avoids bowel mobilization, but its adoption in robotic surgery remains limited because of the confined working space and technical complexity. We described our step by step retroperitoneal
