Background and purpose:In 2016 the National Cancer Institute(NCI)decided stopping to use NCI-60 cell lines for drug screening,suggesting that tumor cell lines were losing their value as a tool for drug discovery and basic research.The reason for NCI-60 cells'retirement'was that the preclinical studies based on traditional cellular and animal models did not obtain the corresponding expected efficacy in clinical trials.Since the major cancer behaviors,such as proliferation and metastasis,are fundamentally altered with long-term culture,the tumor cell lines are not representative of the characteristics of cancer in patients.Currently,scientists hope to create a new cancer model that are derived from fresh patient samples and tagged with details about their clinical past.Our purpose was to create patient-derived breast cancer primary cell lines as new cancer model for drug screening and basic research.Methods:Breast cancer tissues were collected in the Department of Breast Surgery,Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University.The collection of tumor tissue samples was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University(approval number:2022 ethics No.313),and the collection and use of tumor tissues complied with the Declaration of Helsinki.The primary breast cancer cell lines were isolated from the patient's breast cancer tissues and cultured in BCMI medium.After the cells proliferated,the media were replaced with DEME medium.Cell line STR genotyping was done to determine cell-specific genetic markers and identification.Clone formation assay and transplantation assay were done to analyze the ability of breast cancer primary cell lines to form tumors.Results:We created 6 primary breast cancer cell lines.The 6 primary breast cancer cell lines from the patients were tagged with the definitively clinicopathological features,clinical diagnosis,therapeutic regimens,clinical effectiveness and prognostic outcomes.The STR genotyping assays identified the genetic markers and determined the identities of the 6 primary breast cancer cell lines.Clone formation assays and transplantation assay showed that the proliferative capacities of the patient-derived primary breast cancer cell lines were significantly greater compared with the conventional breast cancer cell lines.Conclusion:We created a panel of 6 patient-derived primary breast cancer cell lines as new cancer model for drug screening and basic research in breast cancer.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency in the treatment of overactive bladder(OAB).Methods:A prospective, multicenter, non-randomized controlled trial was conducted. Eligible patients were divided into test group and control group in Zhejiang Provincial People’Hospital, The First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, and Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine from March 2019 to June 2020. Inclusion criteria: patients diagnosed with OAB, and bladder capacity>100ml. Exclusion criteria: pregnant and lactating women; patients with secondary OAB symptoms such as urinary tract obstruction; patients with uncontrolled urinary tract infection within 1 week; patients in stable stage by using other treatment methods; patients implanted with any nerve stimulator, cardiac pacemaker or implantable defibrillator; patients with malignant tumors, serious cardiovascular, cerebrovascular diseases, renal insufficiency or received BTX treatment in recent 12 months. The patients were allocated to test group and the control group in a ratio of 2∶1 according to the time sequence of the visit. The patients in the test group were treated with radiofrequency treatment. After entering the group, they were treated for 4 times at the 1st, 2nd, 7th and 8th week respectively. In the control group, the energy was turned off during the radiofrequency treatment. The patients were followed-up every week until the end of the 12th week. The treatment success rate [the average frequency of urination in 24 h was reduced more than 50% from the baseline or returned to the normal (≤8 times/day) or the average frequency of urgent urination in 24 h was reduced more than 50% from the baseline], the frequency of urination, urgent urination and nocturnal urination before and after treatment, the residual urine volume of the bladder, the quality of life (QOL) score and the occurrence of catheter related adverse events in two groups were compared.Results:114 patients were enrolled in the study, including 76 patients in the test group and 38 patients in the control group. There were no significant differences in the age [(44.2±12.8) vs. (41.7 ± 12.1) years old], male female ratio (13/63 vs. 4/34), average course of disease [2.0(1.2, 5.0) vs. 2.0 (1.0, 4.0) years], the frequency of urination[12.8 (10.6, 16.8) vs. 12.8 (10.3, 17.0) times], urgency urination [11.8(9.3, 15.8) vs. 11.8 (9.0, 17.0) times], nocturia [2.7 (1.3, 3.7) vs. 2.3(0.7, 3.3) times], residual urine volume of bladder [12.0 (3.0, 28.0) vs. 14.0 (3.7, 20.0) ml ] and the QOL score [5.0(4.0, 5.0) vs. 4.0(4.0, 5.0)]before the treatment between the two groups ( P>0.05). The treatment success rate in the test group was 76.3% (58/76), while 26.3% (10/38) in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.01). There were significant differences between the test group and control group in the frequency of urination [9.7 (7.7, 12.0) vs. 12.9 (9.6, 15.7) times], urgent urination [7.3 (5.0, 10.0) vs. 11.7 (7.3, 15.3) times], nocturia [1.3 (0.7, 2.0) vs. 1.7 (1.0, 3.0) times] and the QOL score of the patients[3.0(1.0, 3.0) vs. 4.0(3.0, 4.5)]after the treatment(all P<0.05). The frequency of urination, urgency urination, nocturia, the residual urine volume and the QOL score in the test group were significantly improved ( P<0.05) after the treatment.The frequency of urination, nocturia, residual urine volume and the QOL score in the control group were improved ( P<0.05) after the treatment. 13 (11.4%) patients had catheter related adverse events. In the test group and the control group, there were 7 cases of macroscopic hemorrhage caused by the placement of instruments (5/76 vs. 2/38), 5 cases of acute urinary tract infection within 3 days (3/76 vs. 2/38), and 1 case of instrument breakage (catheter breakage) (0/76 vs. 1/38). There were no significant differences in the adverse events between the two groups ( P> 0.05). Conclusions:Radiofrequency treatment of OAB can effectively improve the symptoms of patients, improve the QOL of patients, and has low incidence of adverse events, with good efficacy and safety.

Objective:To determine the impact of body mass index (BMI) on perioperative and oncological outcomes after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion.Methods:Clinical data of bladder cancer patients undergoing robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion in Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 2017 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into three groups according to BMI, including 61 cases in normal group (<25.0 kg/m2), 52 cases in overweight group (25.0-29.9 kg/m2) and 33 cases in obese group (≥30.0 kg/m2). In the normal group, the median age was 73.6(59, 79), including 45 male(73.8%), with 51 cases(83.6%) of ASA score 0-2, 10 cases (16.4%)of 3 or higher, and 10 cases (16.4%) undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Past medical history included smoking in 34 cases (55.7%), hypertension in 19 cases (31.1%), diabetes in 10 cases (16.4%), heart disease in 12 cases (19.7%), and abdominal surgery in 6 cases (9.8%). In the overweight group, the median age was 69.7(60, 78), including 38 male (73.1%), with 25 cases (48.1%)of ASA score 0-2, 27 cases (51.9%) of 3 or higher, and 9 cases (17.3%) undergoing received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Past medical history included smoking in 30 cases (57.7%), hypertension in 20 cases (38.5%), diabetes in 10 cases (19.2%), heart disease in 9 cases (17.3%), and abdominal surgery in 5 cases (9.6%). In the obses group, the median age was 69.9(61, 78), including 21 male(63.7%), with 20 cases (60.6%)of ASA score 0-2, 13 cases(39.4%) of 3 or higher, 9 cases (27.3%) undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Past medical history included smoking in 18 cases (54.5%), hypertension in 17 cases (51.5%), diabetes in 19 cases (57.6%), heart disease in 7 cases (21.2%), and abdominal surgery in 4 cases (12.1%). After statistical comparison among the three groups, it was found that the proportion of patients with hypertension and diabetes in the obesity group and overweight group was higher than that in the normal group (all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in other factors (all P>0.05). During the surgical process, robot-assisted radical cystectomy and bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection were performed firstly. The scope of lymph node dissection was divided into standard range and expanded range, and the diversion was divided into orthotopic neobladder and ileal bladder. During the orthotopic neobladder process, 40-50 cm ileum at the distance of 15 cm away from ileocecum was obtained by stapler, and then the U-shaped neobladder was made, and the new bladder was anastomosed with urethra and bilateral ureter. For ileal bladder, the ileum was cut off 15cm away from the ileocecum with stapler to obtain the 15 cm ileum to prepare the ileal conduit and restore the continuity of the ileum. The bilateral ureteral spacing 3cm was implanted on the ileal conduit. In the normal group, standard range lymphatic dissection was performed in 20 cases (32.8%), enlarged dissection in 41 cases (67.2%), orthotopic neobladder in 22 cases(36.1%), and ileal conduit in 39 cases (63.9%). In the overweight group, standard range lymphatic dissection was performed in 12 cases (23.1%), enlarged dissection in 40 cases (76.9%), orthotopic neobladder in 26 cases (49.1%), and ileal conduit in 26 cases (50.9%). In the obesity group, the standard range of lymphatic dissection was performed in 7 cases (21.2%), enlarged dissection in 26 cases (78.7%), orthotopic neobladder in 7 cases (21.2%), and ileal conduit in 26 cases (78.8%). There was no significant difference among the three groups (all P>0.05). Compared the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative exhaust time, postoperative time of taking solid food, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications (according to the Clavien-Dindo grading system, postoperative complications are reported inⅠ-Ⅱ grade as mild complications and above Ⅲ grade as serious complications) and pathology results in three groups. Results:All cases successfully underwent robotically without conversion or major intraoperative complications. The operation time in overweight and obsess group were longer than that of normal group with RARC or orthotopic neobladder [310(250, 350) min, 370(310, 420) min, 250(230, 310) min, ( P<0.05)], but there was no significant difference in RARC and ileal conduit[270(220, 300) min, 280(230, 300) min, 240(220, 290)min, P>0.05]. The estimated blood loss in overweight and obsess group was more than that in normal group [230(150, 450)ml, 310(250, 600)ml, 190(100, 350)ml, P<0.05], but there was no difference in blood transfusion rate [4(7.7%), 2(6.1%), 5(8.2%), P>0.05]. The exhaust time [2(1, 3) days, 2(1, 4)days, 2(1, 4)days], postoperative solid food intake time [4(3, 5)days, 4(3, 6)days, 4(3, 6)days] and the hospital stay[10(5, 16)days, 10(6, 17)days, 12(6, 20)days] were not different in three groups(all P>0.05). The mild complication rates in 90 days were significant higher in overweight and obsess groups[28 (53.8%), 16(48.5%), 20(32.8%), P<0.05], but the total and severe complication rates were not significantly different. The incidences of urinary system complications and incision complications in obese and overweight patients were significantly higher than those in normal group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of gastrointestinal complications and ureteral anastomosis-related complications (stricture or urinary leakage)( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the number of dissected lymph node, positive lymph node, positive rate of incisional margin and postoperative pathological stage among three different BMI groups(all P>0.05). Conclusion:Robot-assisted radical cystectomy combined with intracorporeal urinary diversion is a safe and effective method for the treatment of overweight, obese and even morbidly obese patients with bladder cancer. The recovery of intestinal function and the oncological results are not affected by body mass index. However, laparoscopic radical cystectomy for overweight and obese patients, especially for orthotopic neobladder, has the risk of long operation time, large amount of intraoperative bleeding and increased risk of minor postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the surgical efficacy of split liver transplantation.Methods:Patients who underwent liver transplantation at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University between January 2015 and December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into split liver transplantation group ( n=60) and whole liver transplantation group ( n=765)according to graft types.In the split liver transplantation group, there were 23 males and 37 females, aged (52.5±10.2) years, and the body mass index was (22.4±3.3) kg/m 2. In the whole liver transplantation group, there were 630 males and 135 females, aged (51.2±9.6) years, and body mass index was (24.5±3.7) kg/m 2.The basic data of the two groups were matched 1∶1 using the propensity score matching method. The independent sample t test and χ2 test were used to compare the intraoperative and postoperative recovery of the two groups of donors and recipients. The overall survival rate and the graft survival rate of the two groups were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method and the cumulative survival rate was compared by the Log-rank test. Results:Fifty-one well-matched pairs of data with similar baseline characteristics were obtained. The ratio of graft mass to recipient body weight in the matched split liver transplantation group was (1.78±0.55)%. Operation time( M(IQR))(10.8(1.5)hours vs. 8.0(1.9)hours, U=6.608, P<0.01) and cold ischaemia time(5.4(1.3)hours vs. 4.6(2.2)hours, U=2.825, P=0.005) were significantly longer in the split liver transplantation group than those in the whole liver transplantation group. Intra-operative anhepatic phase(53.0(15.0)minutes vs. 57.0(24.0)minutes, U=1.048, P=0.295),bleeding volume(1 000(1 400)ml vs. 1 200(1 200)ml, U=0.966, P=0.334) and intraoperative instillation of red blood cells(9.0(6.5)U vs. 11.0(11.0)U, U=1.732, P=0.083) were not significantly different between the two groups. However,the split liver transplantation group showed significantly longer postoperative intensive care unit stay(5.0(3.0)days vs. 4.0(4.0)days, U=2.677, P=0.007) and postoperative hospital stay(30.0(15.0)days vs. 26.0(15.0)days, U=2.237, P=0.025) and significantly higher incidence of postoperative complications(56.8%(29/51) vs. 36.6%(19/51), χ2=3.935, P=0.047) than the whole liver transplantation group. Furthermore,levels of alanine transaminase and aspartate aminotransferase were significantly higher on postoperative days 1,4 and 7 in the split liver transplantation group(all P<0.05) than in the whole liver transplantation group;however,there were no significant differences in these levels on postoperative days 14 and 28. The time to restoration of normal liver function in both groups(12.5(13.7)days vs. 9.0(12.5)days, U=1.607, P=0.108) was not statistically significant. Furthermore,the median follow-up time after surgery was 25.6 months in both groups. In postoperative years 1,2,3 and 5, the graft survival rates were 88.1%,80.8%,77.8% and 66.7% in the whole liver transplantation group and 80.3%,70.3%,67.3% and 60.5% in the split liver transplantation group( P=0.171),respectively. The patient survival rates in post-operative years 1,2,3 and 5 were 88.1%,80.8%,77.8% and 66.7% in the whole liver transplantation group and 80.3%,75.9%,70.3% and 63.3% in the split liver transplantation group,respectively( P=0.252). However,the differences of graft survival rates and patient survival rates between the two groups were not significant. Conclusion:Although it affects the early recovery of patients after liver transplantation,split liver transplantation has no effect on long-term survival rates and demonstrates surgical efficacy similar to that of whole liver transplantation.

The p21 activated kinase 4 (PAK4) is serine/threonine protein kinase that is critical for cancer progression. Guided by X-ray crystallography and structure-based optimization, we report a novel subseries of C-3-substituted 6-ethynyl-1H-indole derivatives that display high potential and specificity towards group II PAKs. Among these inhibitors, compound 55 exhibited excellent inhibitory activity and kinase selectivity, displayed superior anti-migratory and anti-invasive properties against the lung cancer cell line A549 and the melanoma cell line B16. Compound 55 exhibited potent in vivo antitumor metastatic efficacy, with over 80% and 90% inhibition of lung metastasis in A549 or B16-BL6 lung metastasis models, respectively. Further mechanistic studies demonstrated that compound 55 mitigated TGF-β1-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN)and laparoscopic partial nephrectomy(LPN)in the treatment of giant (>7cm) renal angiomyolipoma (RAML).Methods:The clinical data of 43 patients with giant RAML(>7cm) who underwent surgery in Zhejiang People's Hospital from October 2014 to May 2020 was retrospectively analysed, including 23 routine RAPN and 20 routine LPN. The median age of patients in the RAPN group was 45(17-65) years old, with 4 males and 19 females.The median body mass index(BMI) was 20.3(18.0-25.7) kg/m 2. Tumors located on the left side in 11 cases and on the right side in 12 cases. Tumors located on upper pole in 9 cases, middle pole in 5 cases , lower pole in 5 cases. The median R. E.N.A.L. score was 8(4-12) points and the largest tumor diameter was 7.5(7.1-17.0) cm. The median age of patients in the LPN group was 53(27-78) years old, with 1 males and 19 females. The median BMI was 21.4(19.0-25.5) kg/m 2. Tumors located on the left side in 9 cases and right side in 11 cases. Tumors located on the upper pole in 7 cases, middle pole in 4 cases and lower pole in 5 cases. 4 cases were multiple tumors, 2 cases were bilateral, and 2 cases were unilateral. The median R. E.N.A.L. score was 8(4-12) points and the median maximum diameter of tumor was 7.3(7.0-20.0) cm. There was no statistically significant difference in general information between the two groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, warm ischemia time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications, postoperative recovery, renal function and other indicators of the two groups were compared, as well as the follow-up results. Results:The operations in both groups were successfully completed, and none of them were transferred to open surgery. Patients in the RAPN group had markedly lower median operation time [115(90-220) vs.145(120-240) min], and reduced median time of warm ischemia [15(10-25) vs. 23(20-28) min] than those in the LPN group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the median time of eating [1(1-2) vs. 1(1-3)d], time of extubation [4(3-16) vs. 5(3-14)d], postoperative absolute time in bed [4(3-7) vs. 4(2-12)d], hospitalization time [7(5-16) vs. 8(4-14)d], creatinine change[11.3(1.6-44.8) vs. 18.2(1.0-54.8)μmol/L], eGFR change [21.5(1.8-43.5) vs. 22.1(5.6-51.3) ml/(min·1.73m 2)], and hemoglobin change[22.5(11-43) vs. 23.0 (9-62) g/L] between the two groups( P>0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications in the RAPN group and the LPN group were 0 and 15%(3/20), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). 3 patients had blood transfusion during the operation, because 2 patients had renal wound hemorrhage. During the operation, ultrasonic scalpel electrocoagulation to halt bleeding and hemostatic cotton padding were performed, which improved after suture. One case had active hemorrhage from the renal wound arteries after surgery, which improved after blood transfusion and embolization. Another 2 patients had postoperative fever, improved after anti-infection and antipyretic treatment. There was no leakage of urine after operation in RAPN group and LPN group. The RAPN group was followed up for 6 months to 45 months with a median time of 12 months, and the LPN group was 8 months to 50 months with a median time of 15 months. No tumor recurrence or delayed renal stump bleeding was identified. Conclusions:Compared with LPN, RAPN therapy of giant RAML can shorten the operation time and warm ischemia time, and decrease postoperative complications, the two have similar short-term follow-up results in terms of tumor control and renal function protection.

Objective:To explore and compare the perioperative result and complications of robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal and extracorporeal urinary diversion.Methods:Clinical data of bladder cancer patients undergoing robot-assisted radical cystectomy with ileal conduit in Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 2015 to March 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Eighty-two patients underwent extracorporeal urinary diversion (ECUD group), and 122 underwent intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD group). In the ECUD group, the median age was 70(61, 76)years old, including 67 male (81.7%), the median BMI was 26.1(24.3, 28.5), 67 cases(81.7%) was ASA score 0-2, 15 cases (18.3%)was 3 or higher, 15 cases (18.3%) were high risk non-muscular invasive bladder cancer. 67 cases (81.7%) were muscular invasive bladder cancer. 16 cases (19.5%) received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Past medical history included smoking in 35 cases (43.2%), hypertension in 31 cases (37.5%), diabetes in 17 cases (21.3%), heart disease in 13 cases (15.7%), and abdominal surgery in 15 cases (17.8%). In the ICUD group, the median age was 68 (62, 75), 95 male (77.9%), the median BMI was 25.6 (23.4, 27.8)kg/m 2, 105 cases(86.1%) was ASA score 0-2, 17 cases (13.9%)was 3 or higher, 29 cases (24.9%) were high risk non-muscular invasive bladder cancer, and 93 cases (75.1%) were muscular invasive bladder cancer. There were 22 cases (18.0%) undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Past medical history included smoking in 58 cases (47.3%), hypertension in 44 cases (32.6%), diabetes in 33 cases (22.8%), heart disease in 28 cases (26.7%), and abdominal surgery in 17 cases (14.2%). No significance was detected in characteristics between the two groups. For ileal bladder making and ureteral implantation method in ICUD group, 15 cm ileum was taken using stapler at the 15 cm from ileocecum to make ileal conduit and restore the continuity of the ileum. The proximal end of the ileal conduit was closed. The bilateral ureteral were implanted 3 cm apart on the ileal bladder. F6 single J tube was placed into both of the ureters to drain urine. For ECUD group, the subumbilical 5 cm incision was taken to enter the abdominal cavity. The ileocecum was found and the terminal ileum was taken out of the body. A segment of 15 cm in length ileocecum 15 cm away from the cecum was cut off with a linear cutting stapler and the blood vessels of arterial arch were ligated, then a small opening at the same ileum position was cut. The continuity of the ileocecum was restored. The ileal conduit was irrigated, and the bilateral ureters were placed into a single J tube and anastomosed to the ileal conduit 3 cm apart. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative exhaust time, postoperative feeding time, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative incision pain score, postoperative readmission rate, peri-operative mortality, postoperative complications and pathology results were compared between the two groups. Results:All cases were successfully performed robotically without conversion or major intraoperative complications. There was no significant difference in operation time between ICUD group and ECUD group [260(230, 310) min and 235(220, 290) min, P=0.078]. The estimated blood loss in ECUD group was more than that in ICUD group [300(200, 400) ml and 150(100, 300), P=0.037], but there was no difference in blood transfusion rate between the two groups [7(8.6%) and 9(7.4%), P=0.196]. The exhaust time [4(2-6) days and 2(1, 3) days] and postoperative solid food feeding time [7(4, 9) days and 4(3, 5) days] in the ECUD group were longer than those in the ICUD group (all P<0 05). The exhaust time[4(2-6)day and 2(1, 3)day] and solid food feeding time[7(4, 9)day and 4(3, 5)day] in ECUD group were longer than those in ICUD group. There was no significant difference in postoperative hospital stay between ECUD group and ICUD group[8(5, 11)day and 6(5, 9)day, P=0.212]. Clavien-Dindo Ⅰ-Ⅱ grade was defined mild complication, Ⅲ grade or above was defined serious complication, early complication was defined within 30 days after operation, and late complication was defined 30-90 days after operation. The overall early postoperative complication rate were 19.6%(24) and 34.2%(28)(ICUD vs.ECUD), the mild complications rate were 13.9%(17) and 25.6%(21)(ICUD vs.ECUD), and the late severe complication rate were 4.1%(5)and 10.1%(8)(ICUD vs.ECUD). ICUD group were significantly lower than those of ECUD group (all P<0.05). There was no difference in the early severe complication rate [5.7%(7) and 8.5%(7)], the total late complication rate [15.6%(19) and 16.1%(13)], and the late mild complication rate [11.5% (14) and 6.0% (5)] (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference between ICUD group and ECUD group, in term of the number of lymph nodes dissected [21(14, 25) and 19(15, 24)], the positive rate of lymph nodes [10.7%(13) and 10.0%(8)], the positive rate of surgical margin [3.3%(4) and 4.8%(4)] and postoperative pathological stage T 1-T is [25(20.3%) and 14(17.1%)], and T 2-T 3 [97(79.7%) and 68(82.9%)]. The number of patients with postoperative incision pain (pain score >5) was 43 (35.6%) in ICUD and 46 (56.5%) in ECUD( P< 0.05). The 30-day and 90-day readmission rates were 1.6% (2/82) and 4.9% (6/82) in ICUD group, and 1.2% (1/122) and 9.8% (8/122) in ECUD group, respectively. There was no peri-operative mortality in both groups. Conclusions:Robot-assisted radical cystectomy with ileal conduit is a safe and repeatable method for the treatment of muscular invasive or high-risk non-muscular invasive bladder cancer. Complete intracorporeal bladder reconstruction is feasible and has the advantages of less intraoperative bleeding, faster postoperative intestinal function recovery and less complications.
