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
