Factors influencing intraoperative conversion from planned orthotopic to non-orthotopic urinary diversion during radical cystectomy.
World Journal of Urology 2018 December 6
OBJECTIVES: To determine and investigate the intraoperative factors that contribute to a change in plan from continent orthotopic neobladder to ileal conduit or continent cutaneous diversion at the time of radical cystectomy.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A retrospective review of our prospectively maintained bladder cancer database was performed. Of the 711 patients who underwent radical cystectomy from 2012 to 2016, 387 (54.4%) had given consent to have a NB. Of these 387 patients, 348 (89.9%) ultimately received a neobladder while 34 (8.8%) received an ileal conduit and 5 (1.3%) continent cutaneous diversion. The factors involved in the intraoperative change of plan were examined in this study.
RESULTS: Patients who ultimately received a neobladder were significantly more likely to have clinical node-negative disease (p = 0.045), negative soft tissue margins (p = 0.001), lower body mass index (p = 0.045) and higher volume surgeons (p < 0.001). Oncologic reasons for intraoperative conversions were more common than technical reasons (58.3% vs 35.9%), in both robotic and open surgical techniques. The choice of surgical approach (open vs robotic) did not influence the rate of intraoperative conversion.
CONCLUSION: The factors influencing intraoperative decision not to perform neobladder are predominantly oncologic rather than technical. A clear understanding of the factors involved in influencing the intraoperative change in the urinary diversion plan may improve shared decision making in patients undergoing radical cystectomy in the future.
