396 Background: Cystectomy has become one of the standard forms of therapy for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer with long term follow-up data supporting radical surgical management. Methods: Data are collected retrospectively on patients who underwent cystectomy at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital. The aim was to document the overall survival of patients undergoing cystectomy at this centre. Results: Data were collected on 147 patients between September 2007 and June 2013. Median patient age was 66 (IQR: 61, 72) with 33 (23%) females. 107 (73%) patients had muscle invasive TCC, 13 (9%) had recurrent non-muscle invasice disease, 9 (6%) had salvage surgery following radical radiotherapy and 6 (4%) had persistent carcinoma in situ. 28 patients (20%) had hydronephrosis. 34 (23%) patients underwent neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. 2 (1%) patients had Combined synchronous urethrectomy and 5 (3%) had Combined synchronous nephroureterectomy. Post operatively positive lymph nodes were observed in 22 (19%) of surgical specimens and 83 (72%) had persistent muscle invasive disease. Survival rates at 12 and 60 months are 0.92 (0.88, 0.97) and 0.52 (0.39, 0.71) respectively. Multivariate analysis show that post operative T (HR: 3.99 (1.05, 15.18)) and N (HR: 5.40 (2.17, 13.44)) status are both independent predictors of over all survival. Conclusions: Real life data from our centre showed that the patient population and overall survival estimates for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer treated with radical cystectomy and lymph node dissection are consistent with previous published literature. .
