• Purpose To report survival outcomes after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) for recurrent/muscle-invasive non-metastatic bladder cancer. Methods Prospectively maintained databases were queried for “robotic cystectomy AND ICUD”. Patients treated after October 2013 and those treated without curative intent were excluded. Kaplan–Meier method was used to plot stage-specific survival outcomes, computed at 1, 2, and 5 years after surgery. Univariable and multivariable Cox analyses assessed predictors of recurrence-free (RFS), cancer-specific (CSS) and overall (OS) survival. Results 113 consecutive patients were included, mostly men (82%). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was performed in 23% of cases, median lymph node (LN) yield was 36 (IQR 28–45) and the rate of positive surgical margins (PSM) was 8%. Orthotopic ileal neobladder was the preferred ICUD type (57%). An organ-confined disease was observed in 51% of cases and 21% were pT0 on final histology. Overall, 5-year RFS, CSS and OS probabilities were 58 ± 5%, 61 ± 5% and 54 ± 5%, respectively. At Kaplan–Meier method, tumor stage group was a significant predictor of survival probabilities (all p  < 0.001) and this was confirmed at multivariable Cox regression analysis (RFS-OR 2.29; 95% CI 1.58–3.32; p  < 0.001) (CSS-OR 1.82; 95% CI 1.3–2.53; p  < 0.001) (OS-OR 2.14; 95% CI 1.46–3.14; p  < 0.001). PSM status was associated to CSS (OR 2.54; 95% CI 1.13–5.69; p  = 0.024) and OS (OR 2.82; 95% CI 1.17–6.77; p  = 0.021), but did not predict RFS ( p  = 0.062). Conclusions Long-term oncologic outcomes after RARC with ICUD appear similar to recent robotic series with extracorporeal diversion and historical open experiences.
