Summary
Introduction
Paratesticular sarcoma is an aggressive malignant tumor of mesenchymal origin. The rhabdo-myosarcoma is the most common among children. Rhabdomyosarcoma treatment consists of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Prognosic depends on local recurrence and distant metastasis.
Material and methods
We present the case of a 16-year-old male, who in April 2016 underwent right radical orchiectomy surgery by testicular mass rapidly evolving, with pathological results indicating a paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma. The extension study showed a precaval adenopathy suggestive of lymph node metastasis, therefore it was a high-grade rhabdomyosarcoma. There was an appropriate response after chemotherapy (Protocol EpSSG RMS2005) and we decided to perform a robotic.
Results
We performed a transperitoneal approach with 8 mm trocar and 12 mm optica trocar. We accessed the retroperitoneal space through a latero-colic incision. Then we performed a craniocaudal lymph node dissection until the aortic bifurcation. The surgical time was 240 min with a blood loss of 200 ml. There were no complications. The patient was discharged on the fourth day after surgery. Pathology showed metastasis of rhabdomyosarcoma without capsular rupture. After two months, we placed the left testicle into inguinal canal prior to radiotherapy.
Conclusions
Robotic lymph node metastasis lymphadenectomy from paratesticular sarcomas is a feasible treatment with the advantage of minimally invasive surgery and acceptable morbidity.

Objective
To describe our experience with robot-assisted laparoscopic transperitoneal repair of a congenital rectourethral fistula in a pediatric patient with a urethral duplication.
Methods
The patient is a 2-year-old male with a past medical history of Tetralogy of Fallot presenting with a febrile urinary tract infection (UTI). He was diagnosed with urethral duplication and a rectourethral fistula by voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG). The parents were counseled on various options and agreed to proceed with a robotic repair.
Robotic-assisted transperitoneal rectourethral fistula repair was performed. The procedure time was 229 min with an estimated blood loss (EBL) of 15 mL. His postoperative course was unremarkable. At his 2- week follow-up, the urethral catheter was removed and the patient was voiding normally and having normal bowel movements.
Conclusion
Congenital rectourethral fistula with urethral duplication is a rare anomaly with only a few reports in the literature. Pediatric robotic-assisted trans-peritoneal rectourethral fistula repair is a technically feasible approach in infants with minimal morbidity that allows for excellent visualization and avoids open repair.
