THE FRENCH JOURNAL OF UROLOGY 2024; 34:102639. [PMID: 38636808 DOI: 10.1016/j.fjurol.2024.102639] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the short-term functional outcomes and morbidity of robotic-assisted cystectomy (RAC) and intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) in patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD). METHODS All consecutive patients who underwent RAC+ICUD for LUTD in a tertiary hospital center, between July 2018 and May 2021 were retrospectively included. Medical records were systematically reviewed and patient, perioperative and postoperative data were collected. A good short-term functional outcome was defined by the combination of a satisfying urostomy equipment (absence of urine leakage and easy appliance of the urostomy bag), the absence of pelvicaliceal system dilatation on sonography, and the absence of renal function decrease at the 2months post-operative consultation. Intraoperative parameters and post-operative complications were collected to assess morbidity. RESULTS Thirty-five patients were included. Eight (22.8%) patients needed intraoperative conversion to laparotomy. Twenty-five patients (92,5%) met criteria for a good functional outcome 2months post-operatively. The median operative time was 346min (86.5-407.5). The median blood loss was 100mL (100-290) and 5 patients (18.5%) required blood transfusion. The median times to return of bowel function was 3 days (2-4) and the median length of hospital stay was 10 days (10-18). Peri-operative complications were reported in 16 patients (59.2%): 6 (22.2%) minor complications Clavien ≤ II and 10 (37%) major complications Clavien ≥ III. There was no significative decrease of the renal function (mean preoperative creatininemia of 61.2μmol/L (50.5-74.5) vs 64.5μmol/L (47-85.25) postoperatively) CONCLUSION: RAC+ICUD in LUTD can provide good short-term functional outcomes while limiting blood transfusion, time to return of bowel function and the length of hospital stay. These results should be confirmed by larger prospective study. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4

Robotic simple cystectomy as a last resort for antibiotic-recalcitrant recurrent urinary tract infections in women. Urology 2024; 186:139-143. [PMID: 38395078 DOI: 10.1016/j.urology.2024.02.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report a series of women with antibiotic-recalcitrant recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI) managed with robotic simple cystectomy and ileal conduit urinary diversion. METHODS Following Institutional Review Board approval, all female patients who underwent robotic cystectomy for rUTI between 2011 and 2021 were identified from a prospectively-maintained internal database at a tertiary care center. Exclusion criteria included interstitial cystitis, neurogenic bladder, urinary tract neoplasm, or congenital abnormality. Electronic medical records were reviewed by an independent researcher. Patients were also administered the Quality of Life Questionnaire-C30. RESULTS Twenty-four patients met inclusion criteria. Median age was 75 years (range 53-87). Median rUTI duration was 6 (interquartile range [IQR] 2-10) years. Median urinary tract infections count in the 12-month preceding cystectomy was 5 (IQR 3-9). Infections with multidrug resistant organisms were found in 21 patients (88%). The 30-day postoperative complication rate was 79% (19/24), of which 11% were Clavien-Dindo grade ≥III. The main late complication was parastomal hernia, with 17% requiring repair or revision. At a median of 36 months (range 12-61) post-operatively, the median Quality of Life Questionnaire-C30 global health status score was 50 (range 33-83). CONCLUSION Cystectomy is a last-resort management option for women with severely symptomatic end-stage bladders in the setting of antibiotic-recalcitrant rUTI. Patients should be counseled thoroughly regarding possible acute and long-term postoperative complications. Select patients, managed in high-volume referral centers, can benefit from robotic simple cystectomy with ileal conduit urinary diversion.

Abstract
To synthesise the evidence comparing the incidence rates of UAS post-RARC vs Open Radical cystectomy (ORC) in adults undergoing cystectomy and to compare differential stricture rates between Extracorporeal and Intracorporeal urinary diversion (ECUD vs ICUD). The primary outcome was incidence rate of UAS post RARC vs ORC and the secondary outcome was incidence rate of UAS in RARC post ECUD vs ICUD. Review authors conducted comprehensive search for studies comparing RARC with ORC in terms of incidence of UAS. Furthermore, we conducted a secondary search for studies which compared UAS incidence comparing ECUD and ICUD. We found that RARC may have higher incidence of UAS [OR: 1.39; 95% CI 1.11-1.75; p < 0.0001]. ECUD may result in lower rate of UAS as compared to ICUD [OR: 0.74; 95% CI 0.56 to 0.98; p= 0.04].

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess midterm functional outcomes and complications of robot-assisted laparoscopic cystectomy with non-continent urinary diversion in patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective single center study including all patients who underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic cystectomy with non-continent urinary diversion between January 2008 and December 2018 for neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction. Perioperative data, early and late complications, reoperation rate, renal function, and patient satisfaction (PGI-I) were evaluated. RESULTS One hundred and forty patients were included (70 multiple sclerosis, 37 spinal cord injuries, 33 others) with a median follow-up of 29 months (12-49). The main indication for surgery was an inability to perform intermittent self-catheterization (n = 125, 89%). The early complication rate (<30 days) was 41% (n = 58), including 72% (n = 45) minor complications (Clavien I-II) and 29% (n = 17) major complications (Clavien III-V). Three patients died in the early postoperative period. Late complications appear in 41% (n = 57), with 9% (n = 13) being ureteroileal anastomotic stricture. The overall reintervention rate was 19% (n = 27), mainly for lithiasis surgery. Pre- and postoperative renal function were comparable. Most of patients reported an improvement in their quality of life following their surgery (PGI-I 1-2). CONCLUSION Robot-assisted laparoscopic cystectomy with non-continent urinary diversion may be of particular interest in patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction who are unable to benefit from conservative treatment, as it provides midterm protection of the upper urinary tract and an improvement in quality of life.

Abstract
PURPOSE Radical cystectomy in people with spinal cord injury (SCI) provides numerous additional difficulties, compared to able-bodied people. Therefore, it is important to obtain information from an experienced team about optimally managing these patients. METHODS Surgical procedures, based on the experience of 12 radical cystectomies in SCI patients with bladder cancer between January 1st, 2001, and December 31st, 2020, were recorded and the operative and perioperative clinical data were evaluated. Surgery was performed in a high-volume center by the surgeon most experienced in radical cystectomies, assisted by the neuro-urologist, involved in the care of the patient from the spinal cord center. Furthermore, a checklist based on the experience of the surgeon and the assisting neuro-urologist was developed. RESULTS SCI patients mostly suffered from an advanced disease and were always operated by the same team. The hospital stays ranged from 23 to 134 days (median 42 days). Four of the patients suffered from a postoperative paralytic ileus. Otherwise, both the operation time and the intraoperative blood loss as well as intraoperative and postoperative complications were basically comparable with those in able-bodied patients. The special features of radical cystectomy in SCI bladder cancer patients are described. Furthermore, a checklist addressing preoperative red flags, intra-operative challenges and post-operative challenges is presented. CONCLUSION Radical cystectomy in SCI patients should be performed in a high-volume department by the most experienced surgical team. The inclusion of the urologist caring for the patient from the spinal cord injury center is highly recommended.
