LAParoscopic simulator for pediatric ureteral reimplantation (LAP-SPUR) following the Lich-Gregoir technique

Augmenting surgical dexterity using LAP-SPUR offered great promise because maneuvers could be rehearsed over and over until they were mastered. Of the urologists and surgeons who were evaluated, 100% reported lack of training at their institutions; therefore, all of them would definitely benefit by practicing with LAP-SPUR to enhance technical skill acquirement. Further development and validation are still needed to assess its true benefits.
