Robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal neobladder: impact of learning curve and long-term assessment of functional outcomes

BACKGROUND: There is paucity of data about functional outcomes of Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal orhotopic neobladder (ICON), and the impact of learning curve (LC) on those outcomes remains to be addressed. We aimed to report long-term functional outcomes of our single center series of RARC with ICON, assessing the role of LC in their achievement.METHODS: Patients treated with Robot assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder in our center between January 2012 an August 2019 were retrospectively analysed.

Perioperative and mid-term oncologic outcomes of robotic assisted radical cystectomy with totally intracorporeal neobladder: Results of a propensity score matched comparison with open cohort from a single-centre series

Aim: In this study, we compared perioperative and oncologic outcomes of patients treated with either open or robot-assisted radical cystectomy and intracorporeal neobladder at a tertiary care center. Methods: The institutional prospective bladder cancer database was queried for “cystectomy with curative intent” and “neobladder”.

Long-term oncologic outcomes of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with totally intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD): a multi-center study

Purpose: To report survival outcomes after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) for recurrent/muscle-invasive non-metastatic bladder cancer. Methods: Prospectively maintained databases were queried for “robotic cystectomy AND ICUD”. Patients treated after October 2013 and those treated without curative intent were excluded. Kaplan–Meier method was used to plot stage-specific survival outcomes, computed at 1, 2, and 5 years after surgery.
