PURPOSE: Radical cystectomy (RC) with urinary diversion (UD) is still considered a complex surgery associated with significant morbidity. Open RC (ORC) remains the reference option of treatment, even if adoption of robot-assisted RC (RARC) is rapidly...
OBJECTIVES: Radical cystectomy (RC) represents the gold standard treatment for high-risk bladder cancer. Despite evidence suggesting that surgical experience correlates with perioperative and oncologic outcomes of robot-assisted RC (RARC), validated ...
Uretero-enteric anastomotic strictures (UES) after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) represent the main cause of post-operative renal dysfunction. The gold standard for treatment of UES is open uretero-ileal reimplantation (UIR), which is ofte...
AIM: The objective of the present study was to compare the outcomes of open versus laparoscopic versus robotic cystectomy and ileal conduit for neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD).

OBJECTIVES: To describe our robotic Y intracorporeal neobladder (ICNB) technique and to report its post-operative complications and urodynamics (UD) findings.
BACKGROUND: Chronic urinary retention (CUR) is a frequent complication after orthotopic neobladder (ONB) reconstruction in women. To decrease CUR, several open surgical modifications to provide back support to the ONB have been established on the bas...
Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is replacing open radical cystectomy (ORC) and requires clamping of the ureters, resulting in a predisposition to postrenal acute kidney injury (AKI). We investigated the association between ureteral clamping ...
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) is a technically difficult procedure. Our aim was to evaluate the potential impact of the learning curve (LC) on perioperative and pathological outcom...
