Background:
Bladder cancer, a significant health concern worldwide, often necessitates diverse surgical interventions and postoperative treatments. Understanding the complications arising from these procedures is vital for enhancing patient outcomes and quality of life.
Methods:
This study encompassed 80 bladder cancer patients, evaluating their demographic characteristics, systemic conditions, cancer stages, tumor diameter, surgical procedures, and postoperative treatments. The occurrences and types of complications were meticulously documented, alongside the duration and clinical outcomes of these complications. Different surgical procedures were analyzed to discern their respective complication rates.
Results:
In all 80 patients, infections (43.75%) emerged as the most common, followed by bladder spasms (16.25%). Notably, complications varied among different surgical procedures, with infection, bladder spasms, and bleeding being prominent in various cases. The correlation analysis did not demonstrate correlation (r = 0.13, p = 0.26) between bladder cancer stage and duration of complication. Post-treatment interventions, especially anti-infection therapies, showcased positive results, with the majority of patients maintaining or improving their condition after specific treatments.
Conclusion:
Our study underscores the diverse landscape of postoperative complications in bladder cancer patients. The findings emphasize the importance of tailored interventions based on specific complications, cancer stages, and surgical procedures.
