(a) Initial dissection with hook electrode at low-power setting. (b) Investing detrusor bands divided using sharp dissection. (c) Ureter has been mobilized such that it can reach the contralateral side with no tension. (d) View after bilateral mobilization and closure of the posterior detrusor openings. Ureters have been pushed back out of bladder to permit visualization of the bladder mucosa-detrusor plane to permit creation of the submucosal tunnels.
