Radical cystectomy is the surgical standard for invasive bladder cancer. Robot-assisted cystectomy has been proposed to provide similar oncological outcomes with lower morbidity. We aimed to compare progression-free survival in patients with bladder cancer treated with open cystectomy and robot-assisted cystectomy.
U-M Urology had the 4th highest accrual to this study with over 30 patients enrolled so we provided roughly 10% of the patients to this study.
