Abstract Background Most of the outcomes after radical cystectomy (RC) are directly associated with the type of urinary diversion. This study sets out to evaluate the outcomes of ileal conduit (IC) and transuretero-cutaneostomy (TUC) urinary diversion after RC. Methods This retrospective study included 52 patients (IC, n = 30; TUC, n = 22) at Dr. Sardjito Hospital between January 2014 and December 2019. The clinical outcomes were compared using Chi-squared tests and independent t tests. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the odds of developing related complications. Results Demographically, both groups were similar in terms of age, gender, ASA score, staging, body mass index, and comorbidities. IC was associated with a high incidence of postoperative complications than TUC (56.7% vs. 27.3%; p = 0.035). Long-term postoperative complications stoma stenosis was more common in the TUC than IC (p = 0.010). Multivariate analysis showed TUC was a significant predictor for stoma stenotic with odds ratio of 1.29 (95% confidence interval, 1.03–1.62; p = 0.006). Meanwhile, metabolic change was found higher in IC (p = 0.047). No difference between the rate of required blood transfusion, postoperative ileus, re-operation, and anastomotic stricture in both groups. Operative time (p = 0.000) and length of stay (p = 0.002) were lower in patients who underwent TUC. The hospitalized cost was also lower in TUC ($ 2311.8 ± 1448 for IC vs. $ 1844.2 ± 948.8 for TUC; p = 0.005). Nonetheless, the follow-up cost was higher in the TUC but not statistically significant. Additionally, there was no difference between the overall satisfaction and diversion-related symptoms scores in both groups. The psychological score was better in IC groups. Conclusions Both of these techniques can be an option in a urinary diversion after RC with various advantages and disadvantages. TUC provides reduced complication rates, operative time, shorter length of stay, and hospitalized costs, but IC may reduce postoperative stoma stenosis complications and better psychological function.

BACKGROUND: Many variables may affect the cost of open radical cystectomy (RC) care, including surgical approach, diversion type, patient comorbidities, and postoperative complications. OBJECTIVE: To determine factors associated with changes in cost of care following open radical cystectomy (ORC) for bladder cancer using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS). METHODS: Patients in the NIS with a diagnosis of bladder cancer who underwent ORC with ileal conduit from 2012–2017 using ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-CM codes were identified. Baseline demographics including age, race, region, postoperative complications, and length of stay were obtained. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression were used to identify factors associated with cost variation including demographics, clinical characteristics, surgical factors, and discharge quarter (Q1-Q4). RESULTS: 5,189 patients were included in the analysis, with 4,379 at urban teaching hospitals. On multivariable regression analysis, female sex [$1,734 ($1,024–2,444) p <  0.001)], a greater Elixhauser comorbidity score [$93 ($62–124), p <  0.001], presence of any inpatient complication [$1,531 ($894–2,168), p <  0.001], and greater length of stay [$1,665 ($1,536–1,793), p <  0.001] were associated with a greater cost of hospitalization. Discharge in Q3 (July to September) relative to Q2 (April to June) was associated with a higher cost [$1,113 ($292–1,933), p = 0.008. Trends were similar at urban non-teaching and rural hospitals, except discharge quarter was not associated with a significant change in cost. CONCLUSIONS: Significant differences in cost of ORC with ileal conduit exist with respect to patient sex, medical comorbidities, and discharge timing. These differences may relate to greater disease burden in female patients, patient complexity, and variation in postoperative care in academic programs.

Objective: To report our experience in performing laparoscopic radical cystectomy with ileal conduit urinary diversion (extracorporeal reconstruction). Material & method: This study was take place in Hasan Sadikin Hospital Bandung. A 54-year-old male with histologically proven transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder cT2bN0M0 underwent a laparoscopic radical cystoprostatectomy and ileum dissection was performed under laparoscopy. Ileal conduit and stoma reconstruction performed extracorporeal through small incision between ports (about 4cm). Results: The surgical margins were free of disease. The operative time was 360 minutes. Estimated blood loss was 600cc. Hospital stay was 5 days. Patient was discharge with no complication of post-op wound, and urine production about 1500cc/24hrs via stoma. Conclusion: Laparoscopic radical cystectomy with ileal conduit extracorporeal reconstructive urinary diversion could be the preferred means in managing bladder tumor on selective case.

Pelvic exenteration combines multiple organ resections and functional reconstruction. Many techniques have been described for urinary reconstruction, although only a few are routinely used. The aim of this review is to focus beyond the technical aspects and the advantages and disadvantages of each technique, and to include a critical analysis of continent techniques in the gynecologic and urologic literature. Selecting a technique for urinary reconstruction must take into account the constraints entailed by the natural history of the disease, patient characteristics, healthcare institution, and surgeon experience. In gynecologic oncology, the Bricker ileal conduit is the most commonly employed diversion, followed by the self-catheterizable pouch and orthotopic bladder replacement. Continent and non-continent diversions present similar immediate and long-term complication rates, including lower tract urinary infections and pyelonephritis (5–50%), ureteral stricture (3–27%), urolithiasis (5–25%), urinary fistula (5%), and more rarely, vitamin B12 deficiency and metabolic acidosis. Urinary incontinence for the ileal orthotopic neobladder (50%), stoma-related complications for the Bricker ileal conduit (24%), difficulty with self-catheterization (18%) for the continent pouch, and induction of secondary malignancy for the ureterosigmoidostomy (3%) are the most relevant technique-related complications following urinary diversion. The self-catheterizable pouch and orthotopic bladder require a longer learning curve from the surgical team and demand adaptation from the patient compared with the ileal conduit. Quality of life between different techniques remains controversial, although it would seem that young patients may benefit from continent diversions. We consider that centralization of pelvic exenteration in referral centers is crucial to optimize the oncologic and functional outcomes of complex ablative reconstructive surgery.

<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> This study aimed to explore the complication rates of radical cystectomy in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer and identify potential risk factors. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A total of 553 patients were included: 131 were operated on via an open approach (ORC), 242 patients via a laparoscopic method (LRC), and 180 by a robot-assisted procedure (RARC). Patient age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, urinary diversion type, preoperative albumin level, body mass index (BMI), pathological (TNM) stage, and surgical times were collected. The severity of complications was classified according to the Clavien-Dindo scale (Grades 1–5). <b><i>Results:</i></b> The surgical technique was significantly related to the number of complications (<i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.00005). Grade 1 complications were observed most frequently following LRC (52.5%) and RARC (51.1%), whereas mostly Grade 2 complications were detected after ORC (78.6%). Those with less severe complications had significantly higher albumin levels than those with more severe complications (<i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.05). Patients with an elevated BMI had fewer complications if a minimally invasive approach was used rather than ORC. The patient’s general condition (ASA score) did not impact the number of complications, and urinary diversion type did not affect the severity of the complications. Mean surgical time differed according to the urinary diversion type in patients with a similar TNM stage (<i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.005); however, no difference was found in those with more locally advanced disease. Longer operation time and lower protein concentration were associated with higher probability of complication rate, that is, Clavien-Dindo score 3–5. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> The risk of complications after RC is not related to the type of urinary diversion, and can be reduced by using a minimally invasive surgical technique, especially in patients with high BMI.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate perioperative outcomes and complications of a modified technique of ileal conduit diversion. Methods: Forty-seven cases of radical cystectomy with modified ileal conduit diversion were performed at our institution from January 2015 to January 2020. After radical cystectomy, a segment of ileum was used to pack the conduit and was placed below the digestive anastomosis. Then, the mesentery window of the ileo-ileal anastomosis was sutured. The ureters were anastomosed on their native side on single loop ureteral stents. All procedures were performed by a single surgical team. Intra- and postoperative complications were classified and reported according to the Satava and Clavien–Dindo grading systems. Results: The mean age of population was 66.40±10.14 years, and 76.6% were male. Concomitant diabetes was found in 31.9% of patients. About three quarters of patients had T2G3 bladder cancer. Mean blood loss was 449.36±246.50 ml, and hospitalization was 10.32±5 days. With a mean follow-up of 17.36±12.63 months, the recurrence rate was 17%, and 14.9% of patients died of bladder cancer. Out of the 47 patients, three (4.3%) experienced intraoperative complications, while 15 (31.9%) had postoperative complications. Of these, only three patients experienced Clavien–Dindo complications ⩾grade 3. Multivariate logistic regression model showed that diabetes ( p=0.023) and higher blood loss ( p=0.010) were significantly associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications. We reported one case of ureterointestinal anastomosis stenosis on the left side and none on the right side. Despite our results being promising, larger randomized trials with longer follow-up are needed to explore further the feasibility of this technique on a larger scale. Conclusion: We describe a safe and simple surgical technique with a similar postoperative complications rate and a lower incidence of ureteroileal anastomosis stenosis compared to the standard technique. Level of evidence 4.
