Article Synopsis
- - The study compared the effectiveness of robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion (RARC + ICUD) to open radical cystectomy (ORC) for treating bladder cancer, analyzing data from 316 patients between 2014 and 2023.
- - Findings showed that RARC + ICUD led to significantly lower risks of complications, blood loss, and hospital stays, and resulted in higher lymph node counts compared to ORC, implying better immediate surgical outcomes.
- - Despite better perioperative results for RARC + ICUD, the long-term cancer-related outcomes, including survival and recurrence rates, were similar between both surgical approaches.
Purpose: The robot-assisted laparoscopic (RALUVR) and open (OUVR) approaches have both been described for ureterovesical reimplantation to treat benign lower ureteral pathologies. Thus, we aimed to compare the perioperative and functional outcomes of RALUVR vs. OUVR.

Materials And Methods: This population-based retrospective cohort study included all men age ≥ 18 years in France who underwent a first-ever AUS implantation (identified using a unique device identifier) for male stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after prostate cancer (PCa) or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treatment, between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2018.
Purpose Of Review: The AMS 800 has dominated the treatment of postprostatectomy urinary incontinence (PPUI) due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) for five decades. A narrative review from June 2022 to June 2024 was conducted using 'artificial urinary sphincter' (AUS) MeSH terms in Embase. We extracted information on innovative AUS, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or prospective studies, and systematic reviews.

This study aimed to identify the specific needs and functional challenges faced by adults who underwent pediatric bladder exstrophy reconstructions and assess the management of these issues in an adult population.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted for all bladder exstrophy complex patients who underwent surgery at a young age and were subsequently referred to our center between 2005 and 2020.
