Prophylactic tranexamic acid showed no reduction in blood transfusion rates in open radical cystectomy patients. The trial found no significant differences in secondary outcomes, including estimated ...

In the past decade there has been a rapid expansion of the use of robotic assistance during surgery that involves minimally invasive approaches. In the United Kingdom, robot-assisted radical ...

Perioperative management for muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) includes neoadjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical cystectomy and risk-adapted adjuvant immunotherapy. More ...

A 30-day course of prophylactic antibiotics following robot-assisted radical cystectomy significantly reduces the incidence of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and related complications, researchers ...

—A retrospective real-world study of patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer showed that robot-assisted and laparoscopic radical cystectomy reduce post-surgical complication rates, compared to ...

Partial cystectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer offers metastasis- and cancer-free survival comparable to that of radical cystectomy, but with less perioperative morbidity. Partial and radical ...

RARC with intracorporeal urinary diversion offers survival outcomes similar to those of open radical cystectomy, but is associated with better perioperative outcomes. Real-world data support the ...
