Association of super-extended lymphadenectomy at radical cystectomy with perioperative complications and re-hospitalization.

ABSTRACT: PURPOSE:We performed a retrospective analysis of patients treated with radical cystectomy and lymphadenectomy (LAD) for bladder cancer to assess the differential association of the extent of LAD with perioperative complications and re-hospitalization. MATERIALS AND METHODS:LAD templates were defined as limited (lLAD?=?external, internal iliac and obturator), extended (eLAD?=?up to crossing of ureter and presacral lymph nodes), and super-extended (sLAD?=?up to the inferior mesenteric artery). Logistic regression models investigated the association of LAD templates with intraoperative, 30- and 30-90-day postoperative complications, as well as re-hospitalizations within 30 and 30-90 days. RESULTS:A total of 284 patients were available for analysis. sLAD led to a higher lymph-node yield (median 39 vs 13 for lLAD and 31 for eLAD, p??500 ml (OR 1.3, 95% CI 1.08-1.49, p?=?0.003) but not with intraoperative transfusion, operation time, or length of hospital stay (p?>?0.05). Overall, 11 (4%) patients were readmitted within 30 days and 50 (17.6%) within 30-90 days. The 30- and 30-90-day mortality rates were 2.8% and 1.4%, respectively. On logistic regression, LAD template was not associated with postoperative complications or re-hospitalization rates. CONCLUSIONS:sLAD leads to higher lymph-node yield and N2/N3 rate but not to higher complication rate compared to lLAD and eLAD. With the advent of novel adjuvant systemic therapies, precise nodal staging will have a crucial role in patients counseling and clinical decision making.

Project description:To compare postoperative complications and health-related quality of life of patients undergoing robot-assisted radical cystectomy with those of patients undergoing open radical cystectomy. A systematic search was carried out according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement. A pooled meta-analysis was carried out to assess the differences between robot-assisted radical cystectomy and open radical cystectomy according to randomized and non-randomized comparative studies, respectively. We identified six randomized comparative studies and 31 non-randomized comparative studies. Most robot-assisted radical cystectomy patients were treated with extracorporeal urinary diversion. Robot-assisted radical cystectomy was associated with longer operative times, and lower blood loss and transfusion rates compared with open radical cystectomy in both randomized comparative studies and non-randomized comparative studies. There was no significant difference between robot-assisted radical cystectomy and open radical cystectomy in the rate of patients with any or major complications within 90 days both in randomized comparative studies and non-randomized comparative studies. Non-randomized comparative studies reported a lower rate of complications at 30 days, mortality at 90 days and length of stay for patients treated with robot-assisted radical cystectomy, which were not confirmed in randomized comparative studies. Additionally, there were no differences in postoperative quality of life score assessment at 3 and 6 months between robot-assisted radical cystectomy and open radical cystectomy. Robot-assisted radical cystectomy is associated with less blood loss and lower transfusion rates. There is no difference in complications, length of stay, mortality, and quality of life between robot-assisted radical cystectomy and open radical cystectomy. Data from non-randomized comparative studies favor perioperative outcomes in robot-assisted radical cystectomy patients, the failure to confirm in randomized comparative studies, likely due to bias in study design and reporting. Further randomized comparative studies comparing postoperative complications and quality of life between robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion and open radical cystectomy are required to assess potential differences between these two surgical approaches.

Project description:ObjectivesTo evaluate primarily the relationship between postoperative complications and hospital costs, and secondarily the relationship between postoperative complications and mortality, following radical cystectomy.MethodsPostoperative complications were retrospectively examined for 147 patients undergoing radical cystectomy at a university hospital between January 2012 and July 2021. Complications were defined and graded using the Clavien-Dindo classification system. In-hospital cost was calculated using an activity-based costing methodology. Regression modelling was used to investigate the relationships among a priori selected perioperative variables, complications, and costs. The effect of complications on postoperative mortality was ascertained using time-dependent coefficients in a Cox proportional hazards regression model.Results135 (92%) patients experienced one or more postoperative complications. The medians of hospital cost for patients who experienced no complications and those who experienced complications were $42,796.3 (29,222.9-53,532.5) and $81,050.1 (49,614.8-122,533.6) respectively, p < 0.001. Hospital costs were strongly associated with complication severity: Clavien-Dindo grade II complications increased costs by 45.2% (p < 0.001, 95% CI 19.1%-76.6%), and Clavien-Dindo grade III to V complications increased costs by 107.5% (p < 0.001, 95% CI 52.4%-181.8%). Each additional count of complication and increase in Clavien-Dindo complication grade increased the risk of mortality 1.28-fold (RR = 1.28, p = 0.006, 95% CI 1.08-1.53) and 2.50-fold (RR = 2.50, p = 0.012 95% CI 1.23-5.07) respectively.ConclusionsThese findings demonstrate a high prevalence of complications following cystectomy and significant associated increases in hospital costs and mortality. Postoperative complications are a key target for cost-containment strategies.Trial registrationTrial Registration: Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN:12622000057785.
