Résumé

The robotic approach is increasingly popular in reconstructive urology. Reconstructive surgeons have commonly used flaps and grafts for obliterating dead space including tissue interposition or as an alternative to mesh in addressing lower urinary tract dysfunction. Advantages of the robotic approach are less incisional pain, excellent visualization in the deep pelvis, and improved surgeon ergonomics. In this literature review, we describe flaps and grafts used in lower urinary tract robotic reconstructive urology, serving as an almanac for these techniques. Omental, peritoneal, vertical rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (VRAM), sigmoid epiploica, gracilis flaps, and Alloderm
