Results showed the median number of days alive and out of the hospital within 90 days of surgery was 82 (interquartile range, 76-84) with robotic surgery compared with 80 (IQR, 72-83) with open ...

Robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion vs open radical cystectomy resulted in a median of 82 vs 80 days alive and out of the hospital within 90 days of surgery.

Data are from the largest multi-institutional study on robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with totally intracorporeal neobladder urinary diversion.

Robotic cystectomy appears best suited for nonbulky tumors. Robotic assistance achieves comparable short-term oncologic outcomes to open surgery in carefully selected patients with low-stage disease.

For adults with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) or interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), ...
