Predicting factor analysis of postoperative complications after robot-assisted radical cystectomy: Multicenter KORARC database study.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate postoperative complications following robot-assisted radical cystectomy in patients diagnosed with bladder cancer and reveal if there are predictors for postoperative complications.

Predictive Factors of Early Postoperative Complications After Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy for Urothelial Bladder Carcinoma.

To identify protective and risk factors of early postoperative complications after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) for urothelial bladder carcinoma. Data of all robot-assisted cystectomies performed in six French centers between February 2010 and December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. All RARCs for bladder cancer (muscle-invasive and high-risk or Bacillus Calmette-Guerin-resistant...
