Impact of preoperative body mass index on perioperative outcomes is optimized by enhanced recovery protocols in laparoscopic radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We aimed to examine whether body mass index (BMI) had an impact on clinical outcomes of laparoscopic radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion. Furthermore, we analyzed the optimization of enhanced recovery protocols (ERPs) on the impact of BMI on clinical outcomes.

Methods

By searching our database, data of 83 consecutive patients were retrospectively collected, including 37 patients with a BMI <24 kg/m² (group A) and 46 patients with a BMI ≥24 kg/m² (group B). The baseline and peri-operative variables of the two groups were compared. Subgroup analysis was conducted for ERPs (11 patients in group A₁, 18 patients in group B₁) and conventional recovery protocols (CRPs; 26 patients in group A₂, 28
