Abstract

Open radical cystectomy with orthotopic neobladder reconstruction is a complex procedure not only carrying a significant risk of peri- and postoperative complications but also a high, 3% risk of mortality to the patient. The advantages of performing cystectomy with various urinary diversion methods by the use of minimal invasive techniques include minimal surgical trauma, lower requirement for blood transfusion, swift recovery and shorter hospital stay. The aim of this paper is to describe an operative technique for neobladder urinary diversion formation via minilaparotomy, and classic laparoscopic technique with our own modification in patients who underwent laparoscopic radical cystectomy.
