Brief Title: Intra-corporal vs Extra-corporal Urinary Diversion After Robot Assisted Radical Cystectomy

Randomized Clinical Trial of Intracorporeal vs Extracorporeal Urinary Diversion After Robot Assisted Radical Cystectomy

INTRODUCTION

  • Org Study ID: 20170004
  • Secondary ID: N/A
  • NCT ID: NCT03469362
  • Sponsor: University of Miami

BRIEF SUMMARY

Intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICD) provides superior postoperative outcomes compared to extracorporeal urinary diversion (ECD). The investigators' hypothesis that ICD may provide clinical benefit is based on principles of less bowel and ureteral handling, superior operating room workflow, less exposure to the external environment, and optimal visualization with ICD while utilizing a smaller incision compared to ECD. ICD should have less bowel-related complications, lower pain scores allowing patients to be discharged from the hospital sooner and regain functional independence more quickly.

Inclusion Criteria:
* Biopsy-proven urothelial cancer being considered for RARC.

- * Clinical stage T1-T4, N0-1, M0 or refractory carcinoma in situ.
