This study compares the LRC with open radical cystectomy and concluded that the prior technique is more minimally invasive than the latter one. DOI: 10.1097/01.ju.0000129662.83162.2e

Appropriate placement of ports for robot-assisted urologic surgery is a very important step because it is essential to avoid intraoperative robotic arm collisions. This paper details the strategy in port placement for different urologic procedures. DOI: 10.1016/j.ucl.2004.06.010

J Am Coll Surg 2004, 198:386–393. This is first and only report in the literature describing the technique of robot-assisted radical cystectomy in women. The article also includes a fascinating description of nerve preservation in addition to sparing uterus and vagina. DOI: 10.1016/j.jamcollsurg.2003.11.010

In this pioneering and innovative study, the authors report the first case series of robot-assisted radical cystectomy in the literature, expanding the horizon of robot-assisted surgery in the realm of urology from robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. This has generated interest world-wide. It details the technique and would be of help to those who wish to perform robot-assisted radical cystectomy. DOI: 10.1046/j.1464-410X.2003.04329.x
