At urinary diversion is then required to collect and dispose of urine. Urinary divergent can be performed using ileal conduit or neobladder. Both neobladder and ileal conduit are created using bowel. A major difference between neobladder and ileal conduit is that ileal conduit is attached to a bag on the abdominal wall in which the urine is collected. The urine in the bag is then emptied. Neobladder is positioned in the pelvis inside the patient and connected to the urethra. The patient then empties the bladder as he or she would normally urinate.<\/p>\n<p>Radical cystectomy in the female patient usually involves removal of the bladder, uterus, ovaries and part of the vaginal wall.<\/p>\n<p>[\/col]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Neobladder is associated with higher rate of complications both short term and long term. Therefore careful selection of patients is necessary. Patients with renal insufficiency or tumor involving the urethra who are at high risk for urethral recurrence are not good candidates for neobladder.<\/p>\n<p>[col type=&#8221;half&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Radical cystectomy can be performed through traditional open incision or using laparoscopic techniques with the da Vinci robotic system.
