Robot-Assisted Cystectomy in Patients With Previous Pelvic Irradiation: A Comprehensive Systematic Review and Single-Arm Meta-Analysis.

To evaluate the perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted cystectomy in previous pelvic irradiation patients. We performed a systematic review with a single-arm meta-analysis, searching the PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane databases through July 2024. Included studies reported perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted radical cystectomy in patients with prior pelvic irradiation.

Artificial intelligence for predicting response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for bladder cancer A comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Neoadjuvant cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical cystectomy is the standard of care for cisplatin-fit patients harboring muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Prediction of response to NAC is essential for clinical decision-making regarding alternatives in case of non-response, and bladder-sparing in case of complete response. This research aimed to assess the performance of machine learning in predicting therapeutic response following NAC treatment in patients with MIBC.
