Perioperative morbidity and mortality of octogenarians treated by radical cystectomy-a multi-institutional retrospective study in Japan.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To determine the characteristics of 90-day morbidity and mortality after radical cystectomy in Japanese octogenarians.

Methods

A retrospective multi-institutional study. We reviewed the records of 834 patients treated by open radical cystectomy between 1997 and 2010. All complications within 90 days after surgery were sorted into the 11 categories proposed by the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and graded according to the modified Clavien-Dindo system. We compared the characteristics of complications between ≥80-year (n = 86) and <80-year (n = 748) groups. Multivariate regression models were used to determine the predictors of complications.

Results

American Society of Anesthesiologists score III-IV was more frequent (14% vs. 6%, respectively, P < 0.0
