Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy with Intracorporeal Urinary Diversion following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer: An Initial Experience

Kural 2What's known on the subject?and What does the study add?Robot-assisted techniques are frequently used in oncological surgeries.As these techniques achieve oncological and functional results comparable to open surgical approaches over time, the advantages of the laparoscopic approach can be provided to patients during recovery.The contribution of neoadjuvant chemotherapy to survival in the muscle-invasive bladder cancer patient group has been reported in the literature.In this study, we aimed to share our intracorporeal urinary diversion results, which may be technically challenging, in the patient group who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
