For adults with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) or interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), robot-assisted laparoscopic supratrigonal cystectomy with augmentation ...

Extended oral antibiotic prophylaxis eliminated UTIs after robot-assisted radical cystectomy procedures. Prophylactic antibiotics reduced overall infections by two-thirds and saved $9,000 per patient.

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. While ...

Robotic surgery for bladder cancer speeds recovery, reduces pain, and improves quality of life. It also significantly reduces risks such as blood clots and can preserve functions like sexual health.

New evidence suggests that patients undergoing robotic-assisted radical cystectomy for non-metastatic bladder cancer experience better response in terms of days alive and out of the hospital than ...

Impact of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on 30-day radical cystectomy outcomes. SPADE: Design of a real-world observational study of avelumab first-line (1L) maintenance in advanced urothelial carcinoma (UC ...

RARC with intracorporeal urinary diversion offers survival outcomes similar to those of open radical cystectomy, but is associated with better perioperative outcomes. Real-world data support the ...

Radical cystectomy is a gold-standard treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. We recently introduced robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with perioperative enhanced recovery after surgery ...

Robot-assisted partial cystectomy following neoadjuvant chemotherapy in selected patients may be a bladder-preserving option for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Robot-assisted partial ...
