Labs and studies

Operating room setup

Patient preparation and premedication

Regional and neuraxial techniques

  • If spinal used, ensure T4 sensory level
    • Consider using epi in spinal to prolong block
  • Can consider placing epidural if significant post-op pain anticipated

Intraoperative management

Monitoring and access

  • 2 PIVs for open, radical, or robotic cystectomy (18g+)

Induction and airway management

  • GETA

Positioning

  • Supine
  • Sometimes females placed in lithotomy

Maintenance and surgical considerations

  • If radical cystectomy, have T&S and consider T&C 2 units
  • Some centers use indocyanine 25mg to visualize blood flow to the ureters

Emergence

Postoperative management

Disposition

  • PACU

Pain management

Potential complications

  • Bleeding

Procedure variants

Radical cystectomy Partial Cystectomy Open cystectomy Minimally invasive cystectomy Robotic cystectomy
