Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Augmentation cystoplasty treats contracted bladders unresponsive to conservative methods.
  • Open surgery for this procedure involves significant morbidity, including large incisions and prolonged recovery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report the initial case of robot-assisted laparoscopic augmentation cystoplasty.
  • To evaluate the feasibility of a minimally invasive approach for bladder augmentation.

Main Methods:

  • A male patient with a contracted bladder underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic augmentation cystoplasty.
  • The ileum was utilized for the bladder augmentation procedure.

Main Results:

  • The study reports the first case of robot-assisted laparoscopic augmentation cystoplasty.
