Minimally invasive versus open radical cystectomy for bladder cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract: Background We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of minimally invasive radical cystectomy (MIRC) versus open radical cystectomy (ORC) for bladder cancer. Methods We searched the EMBASE and MEDLINE databases to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of MIRC versus ORC in the treatment of bladder cancer. Results Eight articles describing nine RCTs (803 patients) were analyzed. No significant differences were found between MIRC and ORC in two oncologic outcom… Show more

“…Several meta-analyses have been published in the last two years that aggregate large amounts of data to compare iRARC, eRARC, and ORC [35–46]; they report similar findings as above. Generally, when comparing RARC (inclusive of both intracorporeal and extracorporeal technique) and ORC they report equivalent oncological outcomes and an advantage in lower EBL, lower transfusion rates, shorter length of stay, and quicker return to regular diet.…”

“…Shi et al . [ 35 ] conducted a meta-analysis solely of RCTs comparing minimally invasive radical cystectomy (6 RCTs comparing RARC with ORC and 3 RCTs comparing LRC with ORC) with ORC. The authors found that both RARC and LRC offered significant benefits over ORC in terms of EBL, transfusion rate, time to regular diet and LOS.…”

“…When diagnosing and evaluating the efficacy, cystoscopy and tissue biopsy are still the gold standards for diagnosis. However, cystoscopy is the most invasive examination, and frequent reexaminations will seriously affect the patient's quality of life [16]. Pathological features such as tumor stage, histological grade, and lymph node metastasis are auxiliary methods [17].…”
