Abstract:Cystectomy is the gold standard treatment for muscle invasive bladder cancer. Robotic cystectomy has become increasingly popular owing to quicker post- operative recovery, less blood loss and less post-operative pain. Urinary diversion is increasingly being performed with an intracorporeal technique. Uretero-enteric strictures (UES) cause significant morbidity for patients. UES for open cystectomy is 3–10%, but the range is much wider (0–25%) for robotic surgery. We aim to perform systematic review for studies… Show more
