Most of the publications regarding laparoscopic radical cystectomy (LRC) have reported the institutions' initial experience focusing on technique and perioperative results. Increasing experience from major medical centers worldwide indicates increasing interest and expertise with LRC. In this manuscript, initial laboratory experience, contemporary series, current controversies, and future directions of the procedure are discussed. Careful prospective evaluations of oncologic and functional outcomes are awaited to define the role of LRC as a viable alternative to open radical cystectomy.
