Abstract

We describe our experience with a surgical technique using the multiple fire Endo-GIA-30-3.5 stapler to control the vascular pedicles during radical cystectomy. This technique was performed in 16 radical cystectomies, including three pelvic anterior exenterations for female invasive bladder carcinoma, and compared with 23 cases treated with the conventional method. It was associated with a significant decrease in the intraoperative and postoperative blood loss and a shorter operative time.
