Long‐term outcomes in patients with intracorporeal robot‐assisted pyramid neobladder
Abstract Objectives A range of techniques have been described for robotic‐assisted intracorporeal neobladder construction. The pyramid neobladder has now been performed for over 10 years. We now describe the long‐term outcomes, including the impact of function preservation through nerve and prostate capsule sparing in the male population.
