Introduction: Radical cystectomy remains the most effective treatment for patients with localized, muscle invasive bladder cancer and recurrent / refractory non-muscle invasive disease. We report our experience and perioperative outcomes with 4 cases of robot-assisted radical cystectomy Utilizing the Versius System by Cambridge Medical Robotics. Methods: Four patients (4 males) underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy and orthotopic urinary diversion for clinically localized bladder cancer. We utilized the 4 bedside units of the Versius system, camera and two working ports and a second left side arm was used for retraction. Perioperative outcomes were assessed operative details. Results: The mean age was 68 years, the mean operative time was 380 min, console time was 180 min. The mean estimated blood loss was 250 ml, and none required blood transfusion. Conversion to laparoscopy was done in one patient. The mean length of hospital stay was three days. Conclusions: We report our early experience with robot-assisted radical cystectomy for the treatment of bladder cancer, which seems to provide an acceptable surgical and pathological outcomes.
