| Résumé : | The successful introduction of laparoscopic radical prostatectomy at the end of the last millennium represented a quantum leap in the technical development of minimally invasive surgery in urology. Therefore it seemed a logical step that, at the beginning of this millennium, first centers reported their initial experience with laparoscopic radical cystectomy. Based on more than 2000 laparoscopic radical prostatectomies, two centers have performed this procedure in 48 patients including a variety of urinary diversion (i.e. ileal conduit, ileal neobladder, sigmoid neobladder). In this article, all important surgical steps of laparoscopic radical cystectomy are presented, including the description of the most important techniques of urinary diversion. Based on our own experience, the results of 238 cases presented in the current literature are reviewed. The operating time mainly depended on the type and technique of urinary diversion and ranged between 352 and 430 minutes for ileal conduit, and between 478 and 649 minutes for orthotopic neobladder. The complication rate ranged between 16 and 18%, and the reintervention rate was 4-6%. Long-term follow-up is not available, disease-free survival after three years in a limited number of series ranges between 50 and 67%. No port site metastases have been reported so far. Even for the experienced surgeon laparoscopic radical cystectomy with urinary diversion represents a technically challenging procedure. Nevertheless, feasibility and safety have been proved by various authors. However, larger studies with long-term clinical outcome are necessary to determine the final value of the procedure. |
