ABSTRACT
Radical cystectomy after low anterior resection is rare, and no cases of robotic surgery have been reported. Cystectomy in patients who have undergone a previous pelvic surgery, whether open or endoscopic, requires caution to avoid damaging other organs due to anatomical changes caused by adhesions in a limited space. Additionally, the curative nature of the treatment must be maintained. We describe a 69-year-old man with a history of open low anterior resection for rectal cancer who underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy with extracorporeal ileal conduit construction. Although this procedure is challenging, it was performed safely with the collaboration of colorectal surgeons. The patient was discharged without perioperative complications and remained recurrence-free for 5 years.
