Dutch term or phrase: in opzet
"uw patiente werd opgenomen voor een in opzet cystectomie met Bricker derivatie."

What does "in opzet" mean here?

intended, intent
Explanation:
Sounds like a "curatieve" may have been omitted in your sentence; "in opzet curatieve operatie" is a common phrase in tumour surgery - that would make it a "curative-intent cystectomy" in your case.

Explanation:
I think the word order een in opzet cystectomie should probably be een cystectomie in opzet. The plan is probably for radical cystectomy with accompanying Brickers procedure for provision of an alternative ileal conduit. I just note that while I was searching and typing Anne has provided a very similar answer. Ref given for Brickers procedure.
