Abstrakt: | Colovesical fistulas present a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge, commonly arising from complications of diverticular disease. In our case, a 71-year-old male with colovesical fistula symptoms underwent robotic-assisted surgery for complicated sigmoid diverticulitis. Intraoperatively, meticulous adhesiolysis and fistula repair were performed. Histopathology confirmed diverticular disease. Postoperatively, the patient recovered well. Colovesical fistulas may indicate underlying malignancy in diverticulitis. With a lack of standardized protocols, our case suggests that robotic-assisted surgery offers improved outcomes, better vision, and ergonomics. To conclude, robotic-assisted colovesical fistula repair and sigmoidectomy demonstrated excellent outcomes, suggesting a promising approach for enhanced postoperative recovery.
