ROBOT-ASSISTED RADICAL CYSTECTOMY IN THE TREATMENT OF BLADDER CANCER: AN INTEGRATIVE REVIEW
Abstract
Introduction: Bladder cancer remains the most common malignant neoplasm of the urinary tract. The gold standard treatment is open radical cystectomy. Minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as robot-assisted cystectomy, have been widely used. Objectives: To compare the robotic approach with the conventional open technique. Methodology: This is an integrative review, in which the guiding question was "What are the advantages of the robot-assisted technique in cystectomy of patients with bladder cancer compared to open radical cystectomy?". The search for articles was conducted in the PubMed database using the terms "cystectomy", "robot-assisted" and "cancer" combined with Boolean operators. Results and discussion: Robotic cystectomy was able to improve overall body function when compared to open surgery, in addition to enabling better quality of life and lower mortality. However, there was an increase in reports of urinary symptoms. Conclusion: Therefore, we conclude that robotic cystectomy can provide a better postoperative period for the patient and is also superior in relation to quality of life after the surgical procedure. However, an increase is observed regarding urinary symptoms. Thus, more studies should be done to observe the best approach depending on the condition of the patient who will undergo cystectomy.
