Project description:Background and objectiveStandard radical cystectomy (RC) in women includes the removal of the bladder, urethra, uterus with the adnexa, and the anterior vaginal wall, thereby severely affecting the urinary, sexual, and reproductive system. To limit these detrimental effects, organ-sparing, including nerve-sparing approaches, have been developed. Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and functional outcomes are, indeed, becoming increasingly central to the shared decision-making with the patient. The objectives of this narrative review are: (I) to review the current status of RC in women, including the use of different urinary diversions (UDs); (II) to discuss organ-sparing approaches and their impact on oncological and functional outcomes in women; (III) to discuss the impact of RC on HRQOL and sexual function in women.MethodsWe performed a non-systematic literature review of the available publications in the PubMed database.Key content and findingsOver the past years, gender differences in oncological and functional outcomes after RC have received increased attention. According to the currently available literature, organ-sparing approaches can be safely performed in well-selected women without negatively impacting oncological outcomes. The orthotopic neobladder is feasible and oncologically safe in well-selected and informed women. The choice of the UD should be based on comprehensive counseling and the patient's comorbidities and preferences. There still is a lack of data on sexual recovery after the different surgical approaches aimed to mitigate sexual dysfunction in women undergoing RC.ConclusionsPre-and post-operative counseling and support of females undergoing RC regarding their expectations and experiences in terms of quality of life and functional and sexual outcomes are currently insufficient. Well-designed studies in this field are necessary to further improve outcomes of women treated with RC with an overarching aim to close the gender gap in managing women with bladder cancer.

Project description:ObjectivesTo assess the comparative effectiveness of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) vs open radical cystectomy (ORC) for bladder cancer (BC).Patients and methodsWe conducted a real-life monocentric study including all consecutive patients who underwent RARC with ICUD or ORC for BC at our institution from 2014 to 2023. Uni- and multivariable logistic and Cox regression analyses were used to compare perioperative, oncological and stricture outcomes between both groups by calculating odds (ORs) and hazard (HRs) ratios with their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs), respectively.ResultsOverall, 316 patients underwent either RARC with ICUD (n = 228 [72.2%]) or ORC (n = 88 [27.8%]). The perioperative benefits of RARC vs ORC included decreased risks of major blood loss (OR 0.10, 95% CI 0.04-0.23; P < 0.001), perioperative transfusion (OR 0.30, 95% CI 0.16-0.57; P < 0.001), 90-day major complications (OR 0.56, 95% CI 0.29-0.99; P = 0.04), and prolonged initial length of hospital stay (OR 0.20, 95% CI 0.09-0.35; P < 0.001), as well as more days alive and out of the hospital within 90 days of surgery (OR 2.56, 95% CI 1.46-4.6; P < 0.01). In addition, the use of RARC vs ORC was associated with a higher lymph node (LN) count (OR 3.35, 95% CI 1.83-6.30; P < 0.001), while there was no significant difference in recurrence-free (HR 0.72, 95% CI 0.49-1.07; P = 0.1), cancer-specific (HR 0.69, 95% CI 0.43-1.10; P = 0.1), overall (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.47-1.20; P = 0.3) and uretero-ileal stricture-free (HR 1.18, 95% CI 0.62-2.25; P = 0.6) survival between both groups after a median (interquartile range) follow-up of 42.3 (16.4-73.8) months.ConclusionOur real-world study supports the effectiveness of RARC with ICUD vs ORC for BC. We generally observed better perioperative outcomes, as well as similar oncological-except for higher LN count-and uretero-ileal stricture outcomes after RARC with ICUD vs ORC.

Project description:Introduction and objectivesTo evaluate late complications in a large cohort of patients undergoing robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with totally intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD).Materials and methodsWe prospectively enrolled patients who underwent RARC and ICUD between August 2012 and June 2019. We excluded patients with Ejection fraction < 36%, retinal vasculopathy, ventriculoperitoneal shunts, and those treated without curative intent. All complications and their onset date have been recorded, defined, and graded according to Clavien classification adapted for radical cystectomy.Results210 patients were included, 76% of whom were men, with a mean age of 62 years. Urinary diversions used were Padua Ileal Bladder (PIB) in 80% of cases, and ileal conduit (IC) in 20% of patients (generally older and with more comorbidity). The mean follow-up was 30 ± 22 months. The stenosis rate of uretero-ileal anastomosis was 14%, while a reduction in eGFR (≥ 20%) was observed in about half of the cases. UTIs occurred in 37% of the patients, especially in the first 12 months. Only 2% of patients had bowel occlusion, whereas incisional hernia, lymphocele, and systemic events (metabolic acidosis and major cardiovascular events) occurred respectively in 20%, 10%, and 1% of cases.ConclusionsOur study evaluates first late complications in a cohort of patients who underwent RARC with ICUD. These data are encouraging and in line with findings from a historical series of open radical cystectomy (ORC). This study is a further step in supporting RARC as a safe and effective surgical option for the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) in tertiary referral centers.

Project description:The open approach to radical cystectomy continues to be accompanied by significant morbidity despite enhanced recovery protocols (ERP). Robotic assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) has become an increasingly popular technique for removal of aggressive bladder cancer and subsequent urinary diversion. Randomized clinical trials comparing the robotic and open techniques address the uncertainty surrounding oncological efficacy of the RARC and show that RARC is at least comparable to open radical cystectomy (ORC) in terms of oncologic adequacy and survival. Although RARC with ICUD is a technically challenging procedure, surgeons have noted ergonomic advantages while patients experience less blood loss and quicker time to recovery and to adjuvant chemotherapy (AC), if necessary. Even with these benefits, there is a paucity of data describing outcomes of ICUD. For those surgeons who have switched to ICUD, priority remains standardization of a protocol for the reconstructive component and for a safe transition from extracorporeal urinary diversion (ECUD) to ICUD. Additionally, there is a need for evidence of reduced financial toxicity for the patient, as well as more comprehensive cost-effectiveness analyses. The literature from this review represents 10 years of accumulating data on techniques and outcomes of RARC with ICUD.

Project description:ObjectiveTo determine if disparities in quality of surgical care exist between Hispanics and non-Hispanics undergoing radical cystectomy for bladder cancer.Materials and methodsAn observational cohort study was conducted retrospectively on patients who underwent radical cystectomy for urothelial carcinoma of the bladder at our institution between January 2005 and July 2018. Data was collected on demographic, clinical, and pathological characteristics of patients, including self-reported ethnicity. Univariable and multivariable logistic or linear regression analyses were used to evaluate the association of ethnicity with receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, utilization of laparoscopic surgery, number of lymph nodes removed, and continent urinary diversion.ResultsWe identified 507 patients in our database out of which, 136 (27%) were Hispanic and 371 (73%) were non-Hispanic. Compared to non-Hispanics, Hispanics had a higher body mass index (26.9 kg/m2 vs 28.2 kg/m2, P = .006) and lived further away from site of surgery (34 vs 96 miles, P = .02). No significant differences were observed in receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, laparoscopic surgery, or number of lymph nodes removed during cystectomy between ethnicity groups. However, Hispanics were less likely than non-Hispanics to receive a continent urinary diversion on multivariable analysis (odds ratio 0.30, 95% confidence interval 0.10 - 0.92, P = .03).ConclusionDisparity exists in the delivery of continent urinary diversions for Hispanic patients undergoing radical cystectomy for bladder cancer. Further investigation is needed to determine the potential causes for this disparity in care delivered.

Project description:The da Vinci single port surgical system (SP) is the newest iteration of robotic technology, which combines the camera and all instruments into a single port. Robotic assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal urinary diversion has classically been a difficult operation. Here we describe our technique for RARC with the SP and review our initial outcomes and data in the literature. Four patients at our institution underwent single port robotic assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal ileal conduit using the da Vinci SP surgical system. Operative steps were performed as described. Perioperative outcomes were reviewed. All patients successfully underwent the procedure without intraoperative complications. The average operative time was 270 minutes with an EBL of 250 cc. The average nodal harvest was 12.5. The average length of stay was 5.5 days. There was one 30-day Clavien Grade II complication and no additional 90-day complications. With our initial experience with the da Vinci surgical system, radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion can be performed safely and quickly with the right technique. Our outcomes are similar to other initially published data. Further study is necessary to determine the additional benefits and clinical outcomes.

Project description:IntroductionBladder cancer (BC) is a common malignancy and one of the most expensive to manage. Radical cystectomy (RC) with pelvic lymphadenectomy is a gold standard treatment for high-risk BC. Reductions in morbidity and mortality from RC may be achieved through robot-assisted RC (RARC). Prospective comparisons between open RC (ORC) and RARC have been limited by sample size, use of extracorporeal reconstruction and use of outcomes important for ORC. Conversely, while RARC is gaining in popularity, there is little evidence to suggest it is superior to ORC. We are undertaking a prospective randomised controlled trial (RCT) to compare RARC with intracorporeal reconstruction (iRARC) and ORC using multimodal outcomes to explore qualitative and quantitative recovery after surgery. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: iROC is a multicentre prospective RCT in English National Health Service (NHS) cancer centres. We will randomise 320 patients undergoing RC to either iRARC or ORC. Treatment allocation will occur after trial entry and consent. The primary outcome is days alive and out of hospital within the first 90 days from surgery. Secondary outcomes will measure functional recovery (activity trackers, chair-to-stand tests and health related quality of life (HRQOL) questionnaires), morbidity (complications and readmissions), cost-effectiveness (using EuroQol-5 Domain-5 levels (EQ-5D-5L) and unit costs) and surgeon fatigue. Patients will be analysed according to intention to treat. The primary outcome will be transformed and analysed using regression. All statistical assumptions will be investigated. Secondary outcomes will be analysed using appropriate regression methods. An internal feasibility study of the first 30 patients will evaluate recruitment rates, acceptance of randomised treatment choice, compliance outcome collection and to revise our sample size.Ethics and disseminationThe study has ethical approval (REC reference 16/NE/0418). Findings will be made available to patients, clinicians, funders and the NHS through peer-reviewed publications, social media and patient support groups.Trial registration numbersISRCTN13680280 and NCT03049410.

Project description:ObjectivesTo assess the utilisation trends of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC), rates of performing continent urinary diversions (CUDs), and impact of diffusion of RARC on CUD rates.MethodsWe investigated the National Cancer Database for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who underwent RC between 2004 and 2015. Patients were stratified by surgical technique into open (ORC) and RARC groups, and by type of urinary diversion into continent (CUD) and ileal conduit (ICUD) groups. Linear regression models were fitted to evaluate time trends for surgery and conversion techniques. Multivariate logistic regression models were utilised to identify independent predictors of RARC and CUD.ResultsA total of 14466 patients underwent RC for MIBC, of which 4914 (34%) underwent RARC. There was a significant increase in adoption of RARC from 22% in 2010 to 40% in 2015 (R2 = 0.96, P < 0.001), this was not associated with a change in the rates of CUD over the same period (P = 0.22). Across all years, ICUD was the primary type of urinary diversion, CUD was only offered in 12% in 2010 compared to 9.9% in 2015 (R2 = 0.33, P = 0.22). Multivariate analysis identified male gender (odds ratio [OR] 1.18, P = 0.03), academic centres (OR 1.74, P = 0.001), and lower T stage (T4 vs T2; OR 0.78, P = 0.03) as independent predictors of CUD, while surgical technique was not associated with odds of receiving CUD (P = 0.8).ConclusionsThere is significant nationwide increasing trend of adoption of RARC. This diffusion was not associated with a decline in CUD, which remains significantly underutilised in both ORC and RARC groups.

Project description:This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess and compare the perioperative and oncological outcomes of intracorporeal (ICUD) and extracorporeal (ECUD) urinary diversion following robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC). A systematic literature search of articles was performed in PubMed®, Web of Science®, and Scopus® databases according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis statement. We included studies that compared patients who underwent RARC with ICUD to those with ECUD. Twelve studies including 3067 patients met the eligibility criteria. There were no significant differences between ICUD and ECUD in overall and major complications, regardless of the period (short-term [≤ 30 days] or mid-term [> 30 days]). Subgroup analyses demonstrated that ICUD performed by high-volume centers exhibited a significantly reduced risk of major complications (short-term: OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.37-0.86, p = 0.008, mid-term: OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.46-0.94, p = 0.02). Patients who underwent ICUD had lower estimated blood loss (MD -102.3 ml, 95% CI - 132.8 to - 71.8, p < 0.00001), less likely to receive blood transfusion rates (OR 0.36, 95% CI 0.20-0.62, p = 0.00003); and these findings were consistent in subgroup analyses by low-volume centers (MD-121.6 ml, 95% CI - 160.9 to - 82.3, p < 0.00001 and OR 0.36, 95% CI 0.20-0.62, p = 0.00003, respectively). ICUD had a higher lymph node yield (MD 3.68, 95% CI 0.80-6.56, p = 0.01). Patients receiving ICUD provided comparable complications, superior perioperative outcomes, and similar oncological outcomes compared with ECUD. Centralization of patients may contribute to a reduction of postoperative complications, while maintaining the advantages.
