Cystectomy is a major surgical procedure involving the removal of the urinary bladder, usually performed to treat muscle-invasive bladder cancer or certain severe, treatment-resistant bladder conditions. Depending on the extent of disease, the surgery may be partial (removing part of the bladder) or radical (removing the entire bladder along with nearby organs and lymph nodes).
In India, patients benefit from world-class oncology and urology teams, modern robotic-assisted surgical systems, and advanced reconstructive options for urinary diversion.
Muscle-invasive bladder cancer
High-risk or recurrent non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
Extensive bladder damage due to radiation, interstitial cystitis, or congenital anomalies
Severe trauma or untreatable infection of the bladder

Blood in urine (hematuria)
Painful urination
Frequent urinary infections
Urinary obstruction or retention
Recurrent or aggressive bladder tumors
Partial Cystectomy
Only part of the bladder with the tumor is removed
Preserves bladder function in select cases
Radical Cystectomy
Entire bladder removed along with surrounding organs
In men: bladder, prostate, and seminal vesicles
In women: bladder, uterus, ovaries, and part of the vagina
Robotic-Assisted Cystectomy
Performed using minimally invasive robotic techniques
Allows precision, less blood loss, and quicker recovery
Ileal conduit (urostomy): Segment of intestine used to divert urine to an external stoma bag
Neobladder reconstruction: Artificial bladder created from intestine, allowing near-normal urination
Continent reservoir: Internal pouch made from bowel with catheter-based emptying
Pre-operative Evaluation
Imaging: CT, MRI, PET scans for staging
Biopsy and pathology confirmation
General health assessment
During Surgery
Performed under general anesthesia
Bladder removed (partial or radical depending on indication)
Urinary diversion constructed
Post-operative Care
Hospital stay: 7–14 days
Catheter and stoma care education
Pain management, antibiotics, and physiotherapy
Regular follow-ups for cancer surveillance and functional adaptation
Life-saving in muscle-invasive bladder cancer
Prevents cancer recurrence or spread
Improved quality of life with modern urinary diversion techniques
Robotic approaches reduce pain and speed up recovery
