Brodie, Andrew, Kijvikai, Kittinut, Decaestecker, Karel and Vasdev, Nikhil (2020) Review of the evidence for robotic-assisted robotic cystectomy and intra-corporeal urinary diversion in bladder cancer. Translational Andrology and Urology (TAU), 9 (6). pp. 2946-2955. ISSN 2223-4683

Radical cystectomy, pelvic lymph node dissection and urinary diversion is the gold-standard treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The surgery is both complex and highly morbid. Robotic cystectomy is now in its 16th year with established techniques and sufficient research maturity to enable comparison with its open counterpart. The present review focuses on the current evidence for robotic cystectomy and assesses various metrics including oncological, perioperative, functional, surgeon-specific and cost outcomes. The review also encapsulates the current evidence for intra-corporeal urinary diversion and its current status in the cystectomy arena.
