Factors Affecting Evisceration Following Open Radical Cystectomy

Abstract

Introduction: To clarify predictive factors for evisceration after open radical cystectomy (ORC). Methods: Charts for patients who underwent ORC between 2017 and 2021 were reviewed retrospectively. Patient demographic characteristics and operative outcomes were recorded. Patients who underwent ORC were divided into two groups as patients who developed evisceration (Group 1) and patients who did not develop evisceration (Group 2). The groups were compared according to patient preoperative characteristics, intraoperative parameters and postoperative outcomes. Results: Total, 164 patients met study inclusion criteria, and 24 patients with evisceration and 140 patients without evisceration were enrolled into Group 1 and Group 2, respectively. In contrast, the presence of diabetes mellitus was significantly higher in eviscerated patients (25.0% and 5.7% p= 0.002), and eviscerated patients had significantly higher BMI (28.8 kg/m2 and 24.9 kg/m2, p= 0.001). Also, non-eviscerated patients had significantly higher preoperative albumin level (p= 0.001). Moreover, the operation time was significantly longer in patients with evisceration (332.5 min and 268.3 min, p= 0.001) and lymph node positivity was significantly higher in patients with evisceration (50.0% and 26.4%, p= 0.020). Multivariate regression analysis revealed that higher BMI, lower preoperative albumin level, and longer operation time were significantly associated with evisceration after ORC. Also, the presence of diabetes mellitus increased the risk of evisceration seven-fold following ORC. Conclusion: Present study showed for the first time that higher BMI, lower preoperative albumin level, longer operation time and presence of diabetes mellitus were predictive factors for evisceration following ORC.

Dear Editor; Radical cystectomy (RC), is accepted as a standard surgical method for patients with non-metastatic muscle invasive bladder cancer and patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer which cannot be treated with endoscopic methods. Although RC can be performed as laparoscopic and robot-assisted surgery, open radical cystectomy (ORC) is widely performed due to the extended learning curve for laparoscopic RC, the high cost of robotic surgery and the difficulty of accessing the robotic system. Despite the improvements in preoperative assessment methods and surgical techniques, ORC remains one of the most complex surgeries in urology practice. Previous studies showed that ORC involves some potential complications including acute renal failure, haemorrhage, lymphocele, wound infection and evisceration. Although previous reports stated that evisceration was a serious complication following ORC, no study has investigated the risk factors for evisceration after ORC. In the present study, we aimed to clarify predictive factors for evisceration after ORC. Yours sincerely, Faruk OZGOR, Assoc PROF
