The fellowship consists of one clinical year focused on complex genito-urinary reconstruction which will include urethral reconstruction, ureteral reconstruction, urinary diversion, male incontinence surgery, robotic surgery, fistula (RUF, VVF, vesical, and cutaneous fistula) repair, hypospadias surgery, and scrotal surgery.
The program is largely carried out at the main UC San Diego hospital in La Jolla. We perform a high volume of urethral reconstruction that includes all types of repairs: anastomotic, grafting, flaps, and a combination of techniques. We operate on pediatric patients (teenagers through nonagenarian). We perform a significant number of male incontinence surgeries, many of which are complex and redo cases. An emphasis of the program is exposure to and an experience in robotic surgery, which includes upper tract ureteral reconstruction and benign cystectomy and nephrectomy.
