    Bladder Session I – Single Port Female Cystectomy

    Panelist

    Cystectomy is the standard treatment for bladder recurrent, high‐risk non‐muscle‐invasive and localized muscle‐invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. The da Vinci single-port instrument configuration allows the surgeon to work in narrow spaces. The instruments also have an extra joint providing an ‘elbow’, enhancing the triangulation experience around the target anatomy. The system features: a high‐definition three‐dimensional camera, an instrument guidance system, and enhanced instrument arm control.
