Purpose: We describe a new technical approach for the surgical management of bladder cancer.Materials and Methods: Patients with invasive bladder cancer underwent radical cystoprostatectomy using a technically different approach than the conventional method. The important features of this modification include a small infraumbilical incision, completely extraperitoneal dissection to maintain the bowel loops away from the operating field, urethral dissection performed earlier in the operation rather than at the end to preserve the striated urethral sphincter with the neurovascular bundles, completely retrograde dissection of the rectovesical plane for increased safety and reperitonealization done at completion to isolate the urinary anastomoses from the bowel anastomosis.Results: More than 50 consecutive patients with early bladder cancer underwent this operation during a 2-year period. The technique was safe and satisfactory.Conclusions: Radical retrograde extraperitoneal cystoprostatectomy is based on a finer knowledge of anatomy. It requires accurate dissection, making it inherently superior to the conventional method.
