Partial cystectomy offers comparable survival to radical cystectomy for select bladder cancer patients, preserving bladder function. This procedure is a valuable option for muscle-invasive transitional-cell carcinoma when carefully selected.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Partial cystectomy is an underutilized surgical procedure in urology.
  • Historically, its role in bladder cancer treatment was limited due to variable success rates and effective endoscopic alternatives.
  • It is also an option for various rare benign and malignant bladder lesions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of partial cystectomy for bladder cancer.
  • To determine its role in bladder preservation for muscle-invasive transitional-cell carcinoma.
  • To assess its suitability for selected benign and malignant bladder lesions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical data and clinical outcomes for partial cystectomy.
  • Analysis of patient selection criteria for muscle-invasive transitional-cell carcinoma.

  • Comparison of survival rates with radical cystectomy.

    • Main Results:

    • When appropriately selected, partial cystectomy provides 5-year survival rates comparable to radical cystectomy for transitional-cell carcinoma.
    • The procedure allows for the preservation of a physiologically functioning bladder.
    • It is considered the procedure of choice for local muscle-invasive transitional-cell carcinoma with careful patient selection.

    Conclusions:

    • Partial cystectomy is a valuable treatment option for carefully selected patients with muscle-invasive transitional-cell carcinoma.
    • It offers comparable oncological outcomes to radical cystectomy while preserving bladder function.
    • Further research is needed to define its role alongside adjuvant chemotherapy for bladder preservation.
