Application and Clinical Effectiveness of Pelvic Reconstruction in Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy-orthotopic Ileal Neobladder in the Male

Application and Clinical Effectiveness of Pelvic Reconstruction in Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy-orthotopic Ileal Neobladder in the Male

To study the effect of pelvic reconstruction on early return of continence after robot-assisted radical cystectomy-orthotopic ileal neobladder in the male.

This study will enroll male patients with bladder cancer who will undergo robot-assisted radical cystectomy-orthotopic ileal neobladder. The patients will be distributed into two comparable groups according to whether received pelvic reconstruction or not. Patient demographics and pathologic, perioperative, functional, and oncologic outcomes will be compared between the two groups.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male patients aged 18 or older.
