These conditions often necessitate robot\u2010assisted ureteral reconstruction (RUR), a procedure complicated by difficulty in identifying and mobilizing adhesive ureters.

The patients were divided into two groups: those with the IRIS catheter and those with conventional indocyanine green (ICG) and near\u2010infrared fluorescence imaging. The primary endpoint was a stent\u2010free status with preserved renal function. Secondary outcomes included surgical time and postoperative recovery metrics.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Each group included 12 patients during the study period.

All patients in both groups achieved a stent\u2010free status by 6\u20137\u2009weeks postoperatively, with no significant differences in serum creatinine levels or estimated glomerular filtration rates between the preoperative and postoperative periods. Additionally, both groups showed significant improvement in hydronephrosis, with moderate to severe grades decreasing from 41.7% preoperatively to 8.3% postoperatively.\n
