Objective: To assess, in a retrospective three-centre series, the initial experience and results of patients undergoing radical cystectomy and orthotopic neobladder reconstruction.
Patients And Methods: The medical records were retrospectively reviewed for 104 suitable consecutive patients undergoing radical cystectomy and orthotopic neobladder reconstruction between June 1994 and April 2003. The initial histology, operating times, transfusion rates, complications, mortality rates, continence rates, potency rates, and cancer control rates were recorded.
Results: The median (range) follow-up was 48 (6-113) months; 90 patients had a reconstruction with a 'Studer' neobladder, 12 with a 'Hautmann W pouch' and two with a 'T pouch' ileal neobladder. There were 24 early complications, and in eight patients re-operation was required; there was one death after surgery. There were 14 late complications and 10 patients required re-operation. The daytime continence rate was 99% and the nocturnal continence rate 78%. Five patients required intermittent self-catheterization. Twenty-two patients died from local and/or distant recurrences, and four from other causes.
Conclusions: Orthotopic neobladder reconstruction provides excellent continence rates, and both acceptable complication and mortality rates. Suitable patients undergoing radical cystectomy should be offered orthotopic neobladder reconstruction.

The literature regarding robotic-assisted radical cystectomy in kidney transplant recipients is limited. We present the first reported case of robotic-assisted radical cystectomy with a full intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder in a kidney transplant recipient. A 36-year-old man was diagnosed with muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma 12 years after kidney transplantation.

Introduction And Importance: Orthotopic neobladder reconstruction may be associated with complications such as neobladder-vaginal fistula (NVF) and uretero-ileal anastomotic stricture which are often managed using stents, though these can be prone to migration.
Case Presentation: We present a 69-year-old lady with a surgical history of radical cystectomy and ileal neobladder that was complicated by a left ureteric stricture and poucho-vaginal fistula for which she underwent a left ureteric stent and bilateral percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) insertions after which she lost to follow-up. The patient later presented to our center with a right subcostal anterior abdominal wall desmoid tumor for which she underwent wide local excision.

To determine risk factors for urinary retention (UR) after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RALC) with orthotopic neobladder diversion. A total of 269 patients who underwent RALC with orthotopic neobladder diversion from 2008 to 2019 at seven tertiary hospitals were retrospectively analyzed. There were 68 patients who had UR (UR arm) and 201 patients who did not have UR (no-UR arm).

We describe a case of ureteral stricture after radical cystectomy with orthotopic neobladder. The patient presented 4 months after laparoscopic radical cystectomy with intracorporeal orthotopic ileal neobladder, with fever and left lower back pain.Laboratory analysis showed leucocytosis and elevated C reactive protein and creatine levels.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the outcomes of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder in women with bladder cancer, specifically focusing on functionality, cancer results, and complications.
- The research involved 146 female patients, revealing that about half underwent pelvic organ-preserving procedures, achieving overall daytime and nighttime continence rates of 54% and 53%.
- The findings concluded that RARC with orthotopic neobladder offers good functional outcomes, with pelvic organ preservation improving urinary continence while maintaining cancer safety.
