    Summary

    Radical cystectomy surgery had a low operative mortality rate. However, adjuvant cisplatin chemotherapy did not improve survival for high-risk patients with metastatic disease.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Medical Oncology

    Background:

    • Radical cystectomy is a major surgical procedure for bladder cancer.
    • Adjuvant chemotherapy is used to improve outcomes in high-risk patients.
    • The role of single-agent cisplatin in this setting requires evaluation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report outcomes of radical cystectomy performed between 1976 and 1983.
    • To assess the efficacy of adjuvant cisplatin chemotherapy in high-risk bladder cancer patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 71 radical cystectomy cases.
    • Analysis of operative mortality, early and late complication rates.
    • Evaluation of survival data for patients receiving adjuvant cisplatin.

    Main Results:

    • Operative mortality rate was 1.5%.
    • Early and late complication rates were 21% and 15%, respectively.
    • Single-agent cisplatin did not improve survival in high-risk patients with metastatic disease.

    Conclusions:

    • Radical cystectomy can be performed with acceptable operative risk.
    • Adjuvant cisplatin chemotherapy demonstrated no survival benefit for high-risk patients.
    • Further research into effective adjuvant therapies for advanced bladder cancer is warranted.
