OBJECTIVE To describe our robot-assisted Boari flap ureteric reimplantation (RA-BFUR) technique, Please see Video S1. METHODS The RA-BFUR technique is based on the open surgical technique of Ubelhor, and the experience includes 11 cases. RESULTS Excellent results were achieved after a mean follow-up period of >12 months. CONCLUSION The RA-BFUR technique could be considered a safe and effective method of ureteric reimplantation for long distal ureteric strictures.
