Clinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes of prostate cancer incidentally discovered at the time of radical cystoprostatectomy: a population-based cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to comprehensively analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with concomitant bladder cancer (BCa) and prostate cancer (PCa) using a large population-based database.

Methods

Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2000-2019), we identified patient with concomitant PCa at the time of radical cystoprostatectomy (RCP). Logistic regression and propensity score matching (PSM) analyses were employed to identify risk factors and mitigate confounders, respectively. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to estimate cancer-specific survival (CSS).

Results

A total of 14,199 BCa patients undergoing RCP were identified, with 28.8% incidentally discovered to have concurrent PCa. Among them, 89.9% exhib
