Examining post-cystectomy complications by diversion type using institutional NSQIP data

Updated on 19 February 2024

Summary

Cystecomy is the primary treatment for muscle invasive bladder cancer. It is known to be associated with high rates of post-operative complications with some studies suggesting as high as 60% of patients developing a complication. There are 3 primary diversion types used with cystectomy (neobladder, ileal conduit, and Indiana pouch/ continent urinary reservoir). We would like to examine if there are differences in the rates of post-operative complications between these three diversion types with the goal of identifying new strategies to reduce post-operative complications in our cystectomy patients.
