[A Swiss Urological Society register of cystectomies to improve surgical quality].

In the era of highly specialised medicine, the Swiss Urological Society has set up a national register from January 2019 that will prospectively record all data relating to cystectomies. Doctors will be able to use this information to compare their activities at national level, refine surgical techniques and optimise the perioperative management of cystectomy patients. This article presents the register and provides an initial assessment of cystectomy surgery activity in Switzerland over the first four years of its set up.
