Radical cystectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer is a morbid procedure. Robotic cystectomy appears best suited for nonbulky tumors. Robotic assistance achieves comparable short-term oncologic ...

Cystoscopic tattooing provided clear intraoperative tumor localization, enabling precise resection and minimizing bladder wall loss. This approach addressed a key challenge of robotic bladder ...

Other determinants of the cost of robotic cystectomy compared with its open counterpart include operative time, complication rates and LOS. Models accounting for these factors are inherently ...

It’s the Cambrian explosion of robotic-assisted surgery systems. With the expiry of da Vinci’s patents in 2019, companies around the world are racing to develop affordable and usable systems ...
