The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of bladder cancer patients treated with extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) before or after cystectomy under robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC). A retrospective study ...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Robotic surgery in urology has already been widely employed in robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery for minimally invasive procedures (MIS). We wanted to analyse rapidly developing robotic ureteroscopy (RoboURS) for the treatment ...
IMPORTANCE: The value to payers of robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion (iRARC) when compared with open radical cystectomy (ORC) for patients with bladder cancer is unclear.
