📢 New publication in European Urology
We are pleased to highlight a new study published in European Urology, titled “Reconstruction of a Devastated Ureter: Multi-institutional Experience with Robotic Intracorporeal Ileal Ureter Replacement”.
👏 Congratulations to Ji E., Naser-Tavakolian A., and Lee Z. on this excellent contribution, together with all co-authors.

☝️One ureteral stricture can have many possible solutions 🧠
The Ureteral Stricture Deep Dive brings together Drs. Kit Yuen, Boyd Viers, Jennifer Linehan, David Strauss, Janet Kukreja, Karen Doersch, Joshua Sterling & Ziho Lee to unpack the decisions behind complex reconstruction
@Dr_Jen_Linehan @SteinStraussen @jsterling15 @ZLeeGU
Location. Length. Etiology. Patient goals.
Let’s talk about it. 👏

What an incredible weekend at the Genitourinary Robotic Reconstruction Course! 🤖 Thank you to Ziho Lee, MD (@ZLeeGU), along with Jill Buckley, MD (@JillC_Buckley), Lee Zhao, MD (@lee_c_zhao), and Daniel Eun, MD (@md_eun), for bringing together an outstanding program featuring the latest advances in robotic reconstructive surgery, cutting-edge research, and valuable technical insights. We are grateful to all who participated and contributed to another exceptional educational experience.

Kicked off the 5th annual robotic urology reconstruction course today at Northwestern Univ @NM_Urology by @ZLeeGU with fellow faculty @lee_c_zhao @JillC_Buckley. Hands-on cadaver course w/multiport & single port systems to practice low anterior SP access and MP urinary diversion.
Ziho Lee retweeted
Access to hostile abdomen by @ZLeeGU @NM_Urology:
- initial access away from the scar (Palmer’s point preferred)
- VisiPort entry
- dissection with camera
- second port inserted = surgery is feasible
Ziho Lee retweeted
Bowel injury during port insertion:
- leave port in bowel
- expose injury
- 2-layer closure
@ZLeeGU @NM_Urology
Grateful to have colleagues who are also great friends who continually challenge each other to innovate and advance reconstructive urologic care. Proud of what we’ve built together over the past 5 years and excited for what’s ahead! @lee_c_zhao @md_eun @JillC_Buckley
Great to have meaningful friendships w/your colleagues who share a passion for excellence in surgery &patient care. In Chi Town for 5th annual robotic urologic reconstruction course @NM_Urology with @ZLeeGU @lee_c_zhao @JillC_Buckley. Missing our 5th wheel @ClaytonLauMD this year
So proud of the growth Diboro Kanabolo made during his fellowship in advanced reconstructive urology at @NM_Urology.
@USFUrology getting a 🌟 in reconstructive urology and an even better person!
Last chance to register for this free course @NM_Urology !
Looking forward to learning the most advanced robotic GU reconstructive techniques and advancements with 🌟 faculty @JillC_Buckley, @md_eun, @lee_c_zhao.

Robotic reconstruction is redefining what’s possible in complex urologic surgery.
@ZLeeGU and @_KochDoc discuss robotic approaches to ureteral strictures, urinary diversion, complex pelvic reconstruction, ureteral rest, and the future of minimally invasive reconstructive urology.

What an incredible conference @CILR2026!
Live surgery, great discussions, time with friends old and new.
Looking forward to bringing what I learned back home @NM_Urology! – at Rome, Lazio

The @NorthwesternMed Department of Urology was honored to host the TURNS Meeting, welcoming reconstructive urologists nationwide to collaborate on research that advances care for patients with reconstructive needs. @ZLeeGU @researchTURNS @SocietyGURS

1890, Kyiv: Sapezhko takes lining from inside a patient’s cheek and uses it to reconstruct a damaged urethra.
It works. Then the idea vanishes for decades.
Why?
The “adjacent possible” wasn’t ready.
Today buccal mucosa grafts + robotic allows complex ureteral reconstruction with no bowel harvest, no lifelong stents, excellent results.
I was lucky to help pioneer the robotic version @nyulangone w @mdstifelman. & link with @md_eun @ZLeeGU to validate the technique.
This is how real surgical innovation works: not leaps of faith, but just walking through doors as they slowly open.
