Clinical efficacy and safety of organ-sparing cystectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The clinical safety and efficacy of organ-sparing cystectomy (OSC) are subjects of ongoing debate, particularly concerning the potential increased risk of recurrence when retaining additional organs and its effectiveness in preserving sexual and urinary functions.
