Laparoscopic cystectomy and bilateral ureteric ligation were performed on a 52‐year‐old woman with end‐stage renal disease on hemodialysis (HD) for muscle‐invasive bladder cancer. Her volume of urine production was approximately 100 mL/day. Excisions of the bladder and uterus with ligation of the bilateral ureter were conducted completely laparoscopically. Total operative time was 280 min and the amount of blood loss was 60 mL. No complications were seen perioperatively and no adverse events regarding ureteric ligation arose. HD was performed on the second postoperative day. At a 12‐month follow‐up, the patient showed no evidence of disease.
