New concept in urologic surgery: The total extended genital sparing radical cystectomy in women.

Introduction And Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate genital sparing radical cystectomy surgery in female patients from the point of view of both oncologic and functional outcomes (with emphasis on urinary and sexual outcomes) in a single high-volume center for the treatment of muscular invasive bladder cancer.

Materials And Methods: Between January 2014 and January 2018, 14 female patients underwent radical cystectomy with preservation of genital organs (the entire vagina, uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries) and orthotopic urinary neobladder (Padua neobladder). Inclusion criteria were recurrent T1G3 tumors; refractory tumors after BCG therapy without associated carcinoma in situ (CIS); T2 or T3a tumors entirely resected at endoscopic transurethral resection of the bladder and not involving urethra/bladder trigone.
