Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To perform a comparison of complications following open versus robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RC) among women who undergo the procedure. Studies comparing robotic to open RC have been mixed without a clear delineation of which patients benefit the most from one modality vs. the other, leading to continued debate.
