Robotic assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion is a feasible surgical technique for bladder cancer. This minimally invasive approach demonstrated decreased operative times and hospital stays over time.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Robotic Surgery

Background:

  • Urinary bladder cancer necessitates radical cystectomy and urinary diversion.
  • Minimally invasive techniques are increasingly explored to improve patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the surgical technique of robotic assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with totally intracorporeal urinary diversion.
  • To evaluate the feasibility of this combined approach for bladder cancer treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 45 patients (7 women, 38 men) with high-grade and/or muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma.
  • Procedures included RARC with either orthotopic ileal neobladder (36 patients) or ileal conduit (9 patients).
  • All urinary diversions were performed intracorporeally, with two conversions to open surgery during neobladder reconstruction.

Single-Port Robotic-assisted Transaxillary Breast-conserving Surgery: A Prospective, Single-arm, Non-randomized Phase IIa Clinical Trial

Published on: August 19, 2025

Main Results:

  • The robotic assisted radical cystectomy and totally intracorporeal urinary diversion procedure was successfully completed in the majority of patients.
  • Operative time, estimated blood loss, and length of hospital stay showed a decreasing trend over the study period.
  • High-grade and muscle-invasive urothelial cancer patients were suitable candidates for this technique.

Conclusions:

  • Robotic assisted radical cystectomy with totally intracorporeal urinary diversion is a feasible and potentially advantageous surgical option for bladder cancer.
  • The technique allows for minimally invasive treatment with promising trends in operative efficiency and recovery.
