title: [Technique of the urethral anastomosis in orthotopic neo-bladder following robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC)].
abstract: The urethral anastomosis in extracorporeally constructed orthotopic neo-bladder following robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) remains a challenge. In principle either pre-posi-tioned single sutures or robotic continuous suture techniques can be applied. In the literature the different techniques are most often not described in detail. In the present work one example for each technique is given and the advantages and disadvantages of both methods are discussed.
