Costs of radical cystectomy

Scandinavian Journal of Urology and Nephrology, 2005
The total costs of radical cystectomy comprise a significant part of the total costs of bladder cancer treatment. The aims of this study were to determine the costs of cystectomy, with and without complications, and to investigate related prognostic factors.The clinical records and relevant economic files of 70 consecutive patients operated on between ...

Laparoscopic Cystectomy and Robotic-Assisted Cystectomy

2010
Muscle invasive bladder cancer still has a high mortality rate. Radical ­cystectomy is the accepted first line therapy for muscle invasive and high-risk ­urothelial bladder cancer. In order to decrease the procedure-associated ­morbidity, minimal invasive operative techniques were introduced with increasing interest as well in the ablative and the ...

Indications for early cystectomy

Urology, 2003
Treatment goals for superficial bladder cancer are two-fold: (1) reducing tumor recurrence and the subsequent need for additional therapies (cystoscopy, transurethral resection, intravesical therapy) and the morbidity associated with these treatments; and (2) preventing tumor progression and the subsequent need for more aggressive therapy.

Transureteroureterostomy: An adjunct to cystectomy

Urology, 1980
Eight elderly patients with carcinoma of the bladder have been managed over the last three years with cystectomy done along with transureteroureterostomy. The decision for surgery was dictated by intractable bleeding, disabling symptoms, and extensive recurrent lesions of life-threatening degree. All of these patients were a poor risk. All successfully

Laparoscopic radical cystectomy

Clinical and Translational Oncology, 2009
Open radical cystectomy with lymph node dissection remains the gold standard treatment for recurrent, high-grade, non-muscle-invasive and for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The excellent perioperative and long-term results provided by laparoscopic surgery and the advances in instrumentation design have naturally paved the way for development of ...

Cigarette smoking is associated with adverse pathological response and increased disease recurrence amongst patients with muscle‐invasive bladder cancer treated with cisplatin‐based neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical cystectomy: a single‐centre experience

BJU International, 2019
To investigate the association between smoking status and pathological response to cisplatin‐based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and survival outcomes in patients with muscle‐invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) treated with radical cystectomy (RC).

Selective tetramodal bladder‐preservation therapy, incorporating induction chemoradiotherapy and consolidative partial cystectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection for muscle‐invasive bladder cancer: oncological and functional outcomes of 107 patients

BJU International, 2019
To evaluate the oncological and functional outcomes associated with selective tetramodal bladder‐sparing therapy, comprising maximal transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT), induction chemoradiotherapy (CRT), and consolidative partial ...

Laparoscopic radical cystectomy

Current Urology Reports, 2005
Laparoscopic radical cystectomy is an emerging technique. It has been proposed as an alternative to open radical cystectomy, which is the gold standard treatment of muscle-invasive or high-risk superficial bladder cancer. The experience in laparoscopic radical cystectomy reported in peer-reviewed journals account for approximately 100 cases, with a ...

Laparoscopic radical cystectomy

BJU International, 2007
Localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer is most commonly treated by radical surgical removal of the bladder (1). However, radical cystectomy is indeed a major abdominal surgery with a lengthy hospital stay and protracted recovery period (2). With the advances in laparoscopy technique, most ablative surgeries in urology can be performed using a ...

Step‐by‐step technique for single‐port robot‐assisted radical cystectomy and pelvic lymph nodes dissection using the da Vinci® SP™ surgical system

BJU International, 2019
To describe a step‐by‐step technique for robot‐assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) performed using the da Vinci® SP™ surgical system (Intuitive Surgical Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, USA).
