Abstract
Diverticulum is usually congenital, or associated with bladder outlet obstruction. Laparoscopic diverticulectomy is an established procedure for bladder diverticulum. Better vision, precise dissection and easier suturing with robot assisted approach will make the procedure ‘easier’ for the surgeons.
