The effect of enhanced recovery after surgery on oncologic outcome following radical cystectomy for urothelial bladder carcinoma.
Surgical Oncology 2024 March 9
INTRODUCTION: Limited data are available regarding the effect of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols on the long-term outcomes of radical cystectomy (RC) in bladder cancer patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the oncological outcomes in patients who underwent RC with ERAS protocol.
METHODS: We reviewed the records of patients who underwent RC for primary urothelial bladder carcinoma with curative intent from January 2003 to August 2022. The primary and secondary outcomes were recurrence-free (RFS) and overall survival (OS). Multivariable Cox regression analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of ERAS on oncological outcomes.
RESULTS: A total of 967 ERAS patients and 1144 non-ERAS patients were included in this study. The RFS rates at 1, 3, and 5 years after RC were 81%, 71.5%, and 69% in the ERAS cohort, respectively. This rate in the non-ERAS group was 81%, 71%, and 67% at 1, 3, and 5 years after RC, respectively (P = 0.50). However, ERAS patients had significantly better OS with 86%, 73%, and 67% survival rates at 1, 3, and 5 years compared to 84%, 68%, and 59.5% survival rates in the non-ERAS group, respectively (P = 0.002). In multivariable analysis adjusting for other relevant factors, ERAS was no longer independently associated with recurrence-free (HR = 0.96, 95% CI 0.76-1.22, P = 0.75) or overall survival (HR = 0.84, 95% CI 0.66-1.09, P = 0.28) following RC.
CONCLUSION: ERAS protocols are associated with a shorter hospital stay, yet with no impact on long-term oncologic outcomes in patients undergoing RC for bladder cancer.
