Survival of Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease Treated with Radical Cystectomy and Risk Factors of Glomerular Filtration Rate Loss Following Radical Cystectomy: Two Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses of Interplay Between Radical Cystectomy and Renal Function. Eur Urol Focus 2024; 10:169-181. [PMID: 37442723 DOI: 10.1016/j.euf.2023.06.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT There is no high-level evidence regarding the risk factors of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) loss following radical cystectomy (RC) and survival outcomes of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing RC. OBJECTIVE To identify the risk factors of CKD in patients treated with RC for bladder cancer and to assess overall and oncological survival of patients with CKD who underwent RC. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION According to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses statement, two systematic reviews were performed for studies published before September 30, 2022, assessing (1) risk factors of renal function (RF) decline following RC and (2) overall and oncological outcomes of CKD patients treated with RC. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS A total of 21 and 17 studies were included for qualitative and quantitative syntheses, respectively. The first meta-analysis of ten studies (15 502 patients) identified these factors to be significantly associated with GFR loss following RC: advanced age, lower baseline RF, higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), diabetes mellitus, hypertension, postoperative hydronephrosis, ureteroenteric stricture, and locally advanced disease (hazard ratios [HRs] 1.03, 1.22, 1.5, 1.27, 1.24, 1.69, 1.92, and 5.13, respectively), while sex, preoperative hydronephrosis, perioperative chemotherapy, and diversion type were not. The second meta-analysis of seven studies (6900 patients) demonstrated significantly worse metastasis-free, cancer-specific, and overall survival in patients with higher CKD stages than in those with lower stages (HRs 1.54, 2.09, and 1.47, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Current evidence suggests that older age, lower baseline RF, higher CCI, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, postoperative hydronephrosis, ureteroenteric stricture, and locally advanced disease are associated with long-term GFR loss following RC. In addition, patients with higher stages of CKD have worse long-term overall and oncological outcomes following RC. These data may help in counseling and decision-making regarding therapy and preventive measures. PATIENT SUMMARY Several factors have been identified that can help identify patients at risk for glomerular filtration rate loss after radical cystectomy (RC). Chronic kidney disease is associated with poor cancer- and non-cancer-specific outcomes following RC.

Abstract
The clinical management of advanced malignancies of the upper and lower urinary tract has been revolutionized with the advent of immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs). ICBs reinstate or bolster pre-existing immune responses while creating new T cell specificities. Immunogenic cancers, which tend to benefit more from immunotherapy than cold tumours, harbour tumour-specific neoantigens, often associated with a high tumour mutational burden, as well as CD8+ T cell infiltrates and ectopic lymphoid structures. The identification of beneficial non-self tumour antigens and natural adjuvants is the focus of current investigation. Moreover, growing evidence suggests that urinary or intestinal commensals, BCG and uropathogenic Escherichia coli influence long-term responses in patients with kidney or bladder cancer treated with ICBs. Bacteria infecting urothelium could be a prominent target for T follicular helper cells and B cells, linking innate and cognate CD8+ memory responses. In the urinary tract, commensal flora differ between healthy and tumoural mucosae. Although antibiotics can affect the prognosis of urinary tract malignancies, bacteria can have a major influence on cancer immunosurveillance. Beyond their role as biomarkers, immune responses against uropathogenic commensals could be harnessed for the design of future immunoadjuvants that can be advantageously combined with ICBs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the impact of preoperative renal impairment on the oncological outcomes of patients with urothelial carcinoma who underwent radical cystectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with urothelial carcinoma who underwent radical cystectomy from 2004 to 2017. All patients who underwent preoperative 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid renal scintigraphy (DTPA) were identified. We divided the patients into two groups according to their glomerular filtration rates (GFRs): GFR group 1, GFR≥90 mL/min/1.73 m²; GFR group 2, 60≤GFR<90 mL/min/1.73 m². We included 89 patients in GFR group 1 and 246 patients in GFR group 2 and compared the clinicopathological characteristics and oncological outcomes between the two groups. RESULTS The mean time required for recurrence was 125.5±8.0 months in GFR group 1 and 85.7±7.4 months in GFR group 2 (p=0.030). The mean cancer-specific survival was 131.7±7.8 months in GFR group 1 and 95.5±6.9 months in GFR group 2 (p=0.051). The mean overall survival was 123.3±8.1 months in GFR group 1 and 79.5±6.6 months in GFR group 2 (p=0.004). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative GFR values in the range of 60≤GFR<90 mL/min/1.73 m² are independent prognostic factors for poor recurrence-free survival, cancer-specific survival, and overall survival in patients after radical cystectomy compared with GFR values of ≥90 mL/min/1.73 m².

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this meta-analysis was to analyze whether chronic kidney disease (CKD) affected the complications and prognosis after liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched from inception to 22 February 2022 to find eligible studies. Complications, overall survival (OS), and disease-free survival (DFS) were collected, and this meta-analysis was performed with RevMan 5.3. Results A total of nine studies including 6,541 patients were included in this meta-analysis. After pooling all baseline information, the CKD group had a higher rate of Child-Pugh grade B than the Non-CKD group (OR = 1.58, 95% CI = 1.3 to 1.93, P < 0.00001). As for surgery-related information, the CKD group had larger blood loss (MD = −404.79, 95% CI = −509.70 to −299.88, P < 0.00001), and higher rate of blood transfusion (OR = 2.47, 95% CI = 1.85 to 3.3, P < 0.00001). In terms of complications, the CKD group had a higher rate of overall complications (OR = 2.1, 95% CI = 1.57 to 2.81, P < 0.00001) and a higher rate of ≥ grade III complications (OR = 2.04, 95% CI = 1.57 to 2.81, P = 0.0002). The CKD group had poor OS compared with the non-CKD group (HR = 1.28, 95% CI = 1.1 to 1.49, P = 0.001). However, in terms of DFS, no significant difference was found (HR = 1.11, 95% CI = 0.96 to 1.28, P = 0.16). Conclusion Preexisting CKD was associated with higher ratio of complications and poor OS.

Abstract
Background Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are poor candidates for standard treatments for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and may be more likely to experience adverse outcomes when diagnosed with MIBC. Objective To investigate factors associated with the development of advanced CKD following radical cystectomy. Design setting and participants Using national Veterans Health Administration utilization files, we identified 3360 patients who underwent radical cystectomy for MIBC between 2004 and 2018. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis We examined factors associated with the development of advanced CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] of <30 ml/min/1.73 m2) after radical cystectomy using multivariable logistic and proportional hazard regression, with and without consideration of competing risks. We examined survival using Kaplan-Meier product limit estimates and proportional hazard regression. Results and limitations The median age at surgery was 67 yr and the mean preoperative eGFR was 69.1 ± 20.3 ml/min/1.73 m2. Approximately three out of ten patients (n = 962, 29%) progressed to advanced CKD within 12 mo. Older age (hazard ratio [HR] per 5-yr increase 1.15, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.10-1.20), preoperative hydronephrosis (HR 1.50, 95% CI 1.29-1.76), adjuvant chemotherapy (HR 1.19, 95% CI 1.00-1.41), higher comorbidity index (HR 1.13, 95% CI 1.11-1.16 per point), and lower baseline kidney function (HR 0.75, 95% CI 0.73-0.78) were associated with the development of advanced CKD. Baseline kidney function at the time of surgery was associated with survival. Generalizability is limited due to the predominantly male cohort. Conclusions Impaired kidney function at baseline is associated with progression to advanced CKD and mortality after radical cystectomy. Preoperative kidney function should be incorporated into risk stratification algorithms for patients undergoing radical cystectomy. Patient summary Impaired kidney function at baseline is associated with progression to advanced chronic kidney disease and mortality after radical cystectomy.

Oncologic Outcomes of Squamous Cell Carcinoma Versus Urothelial Carcinoma With Squamous Differentiation After Radical Cystectomy for Bladder Carcinoma. Clin Genitourin Cancer 2021; 20:148-154. [PMID: 34998698 DOI: 10.1016/j.clgc.2021.12.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2021] [Revised: 12/06/2021] [Accepted: 12/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION In this study we aim to compare clinicopathological characteristics and cancer specific survival between patients treated with radical cystectomy for pure squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and urothelial carcinoma with squamous differentiation (SqD). PATIENTS AND METHODS We reviewed data of 1737 consecutive patients treated with radical cystectomy and urinary diversion between January 2004 and February 2014. Only patients with pure SCC or SqD were included in the analysis. Squamous differentiation was defined as intercellular bridges or keratinization in the tumor. Clinicopathological data and recurrence free survival (RFS) were compared between patients diagnosed with SCC and SqD. RESULTS SCC and SqD were found in 318 and 223 patients, respectively. Mean age was 57 ± 8.3 years in SCC and 58.8 ± 7.8 in SqD (P = .008). A higher proportion of female patients was observed in SCC group compared to SqD (31.8% vs. 22% P < .0001). Patients with SqD were more likely to have extravesical (58.3% vs. 46.2%: P = .006) and nodal positive disease (34.5% vs. 14.5%: P < .0001) than pure SCC patients. Bilharzial eggs were found in 61% of SCC vs. 46% of SqD (P = .001).; The median (IQR) follow up period for SCC and SqD was 63 (12-112) months and 23 months (9-74.7), respectively. The 5-year RFS for SCC and SqD were 77% and 59.8 %, respectively (P < .0001).; Multivariate cox regression analysis identified advanced pT stage (OR: 1.9, 95% CI: 1.3-2.86, P = .0001), nodal positive disease (OR: 1.6, 95% CI: 1.1-2.48, P = .01) and SqD histology (OR: 1.6, 95% CI: 1.14-2.31, P = .007 as independent predictors of 5-year RFS. CONCLUSION Patient with SCC had significantly higher 5-year RFS in comparison to SqD. The higher rate of extravesical disease and lymph node metastasis in SqD patients is indicative of aggressive behavior of this histologic type.

Smaller decline of renal function after nephroureterectomy predicts poorer prognosis of upper tract urothelial carcinoma: a multicentre retrospective study. Jpn J Clin Oncol 2021; 51:1577-1586. [PMID: 34047345 DOI: 10.1093/jjco/hyab081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2021] [Accepted: 05/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Renal function is frequently impaired in the patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma. We aimed to evaluate the impact of renal function and its change after surgery on survival rates in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma after nephroureterectomy. METHODS The study cohort comprised 755 patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma who underwent nephroureterectomy between 1995 and 2016 at nine hospitals in Japan. Estimated glomerular filtration rate was calculated using the three-variable Japanese equation for glomerular filtration rate estimation from serum creatinine level and age. Outcomes were recurrence-free, cancer-specific and overall survivals. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were used. RESULTS Median patients' age was 72 years old. Pre- and post-surgical median estimated glomerular filtration rate were 55.5 and 42.9 ml/min/1.73 m2, respectively. Median estimated glomerular filtration rate decline after surgery, which represents function of the affected side kidney, was 13.1 ml/min/1.73 m2. The 5-year recurrence-free, cancer-specific and overall survivals were 68.3, 79.4 and 74.0%, respectively. Multivariate analysis indicated that lower preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate and estimated glomerular filtration rate decline were associated with poorer recurrence-free, cancer-specific and overall survivals, but post-operative estimated glomerular filtration rate was not. Estimated glomerular filtration rate decline was more significant poor-prognosticator than preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate. Proportions of the patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 before surgery were 50.6 and 73.2% in organ-confined disease and locally advanced disease, respectively (P < 0.0001). After surgery, they were 91.6 and 89.8%, respectively (P = 0.3896). CONCLUSIONS Lower preoperative renal function, especially of the affected side kidney, was significantly associated with poor prognosis after nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma. Many patients with locally advanced disease have reduced renal function at diagnosis and even more after surgery.

Abstract
(Objective) We retrospectively analyzed clinical outcome, prognostic factors and adjuvant chemotherapy for bladder cancer patients with open radical cystectomy (ORC) combined with ileal conduit construction (ICC). (Patients and methods) From February 2005 to February 2019, 179 patients underwent ORC and ICC for invasive bladder cancer or BCG unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. We investigated intraoperative and early postoperative complications, overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and poor prognostic factors affecting OS. Furthermore, we evaluated the prognosis of patients with pT3,4 or pN1-3 depending on adjuvant chemotherapy. (Results) Clavien-Dindo Grade 4 or 5 complications were not occurred. The 5-year and 10-year OS probability were 71.1% and 57.4%, respectively, while the 5-year and 10-year CSS probability were 76.5% and 71.5%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that male (HR = 2.70, 95%CI [0.97-7.51]), pT3,4 (HR = 1.83, 95%CI [1.05-3.21]), and pN1-3 (HR = 2.85, 95%CI [1.62-5.03]) were independent poor prognostic factors. Adjuvant chemotherapy significantly improved OS (p = 0.03) and CSS (p = 0.017) in pN1-3 patients. (Conclusion) ORC combined with ICC was an effective operative method, and good results were obtained. Adjuvant chemotherapy may be effective for patients with positive regional lymph nodes.

Abstract
Lymph node dissection is an indispensable component of radical cystectomy for bladder cancer. Information obtained with lymph node dissection is highly predictive of patient survival, affecting decision-making for adjuvant therapy (diagnostic role). Also, lymph node dissection provides survival benefits in certain patients by removing metastasized nodes (therapeutic role). However, an optimal extent of lymph node dissection has not been established yet. Data from surgical mapping studies showed that approximately 10% of the primary lymphatic landing sites were common iliac nodes, suggesting that lymph node dissection below the common iliac bifurcation is suboptimal. Several retrospective studies have shown a possible survival advantage with more extended lymph node dissection. However, the results of the first prospective randomized controlled trial failed to prove the survival advantage of extended lymph node dissection up to the level of the inferior mesenteric artery, compared with lymph node dissection below the bifurcation of the common iliac artery. Currently, lymph node dissection templates recommended by major guidelines are not consistent with each other. Furthermore, the evidence is limited in the settings of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, robot-assisted surgery and high-risk non-muscle-invasive disease. Physicians need to decide the extent of lymph node dissection for each patient, taking into account the potential survival benefit and possible harms of extended lymph node dissection. Another randomized controlled trial is currently underway and will provide further evidence shortly.

Prognostic impact of preoperative renal function in patients treated with radical cystectomy: a multi-institutional retrospective study. Int J Clin Oncol 2020; 25:1969-1976. [PMID: 32648134 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-020-01745-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2019] [Accepted: 06/23/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Little data on the preoperative prognostic factors in radical cystectomy (RC) patients have made it difficult to choose the appropriate type of urothelial diversion (UD). This study aimed to investigate the prognostic role of UD, with a subgroup analysis of that of preoperative renal function. METHODS From 1990 to 2015, 279 patients underwent RC for bladder cancer at six hospitals affiliated with Kitasato University in Japan. All patients were divided into three groups: cutaneous ureterostomy (CU; n = 54), ileal conduit (IC; n = 139), and orthotopic neobladder (NB; n = 86). Patients were also stratified into three groups based on preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (mL/min/1.73 m2): normal eGFR (> 60 mL/min/1.73 m2; n = 149), moderately reduced eGFR (45-60 mL/min/1.73 m2; n = 66), and severely reduced eGFR (< 45 mL/min/1.73 m2; n = 37). Statistical analyses were performed to investigate prognostic values of UD and preoperative eGFR. RESULTS Kaplan-Meier analyses showed that progression-free survival (PFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) did not differ between the three types of UD groups. With regard to renal function, the preoperative severely reduced group had significantly worse PFS and CSS than the other groups. The multivariate analysis showed that severely reduced preoperative eGFR was an independent risk factor of worse PFS and worse CSS. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrated that preoperative severe renal function was shown as an independent risk factor of both PFS and CSS.

Abstract
PURPOSE Renal function outcomes following robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) have not been well established. We sought to compare long-term renal function outcomes between open radical cystectomy, RARC with extracorporeal urinary diversion and intracorporeal urinary diversion at a high volume institution. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed our institutional bladder cancer database for patients who underwent RC from 2010 to 2019 with pre-operative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 45 ml/min/1.73m2. Changes in renal function were assessed through locally weighted scatter plot smoothing and comparison of median eGFR between surgical groups. Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3B was defined as eGFR < 45 ml/min/1.73m2. Renal function decline was defined as a ≥10 ml/min/1.73m2 drop in eGFR. Kaplan Meier method with log-rank was used to compare CKD 3B-free survival and renal function decline. Cox Proportional Hazards model was used to identify predictors of CKD 3B. RESULTS Six hundred and forty four patients were included with median follow-up of 32 months (IQR 12-56). Preoperative characteristics were similar among the groups with no differences in median pre-operative eGFR (ORC: 74.6, extracorporeal urinary diversion: 74.3, intracorporeal urinary diversion: 71.6 ml/min/1.73m2, P=0.15). Median postoperative eGFR on follow up was not different between groups (P=0.56). 33% of patients developed CKD 3B. There were no differences in CKD 3B-free survival by surgical approach (P = 0.23) or urinary diversion (P = 0.09). 64% of patients experienced renal function decline with a median time of 2.4 years (P 0.23). Predictors of CKD were pathologic T3 disease or greater (HR: 1.77, P = 0.01), ureteroenteric anastomotic stricture (HR: 2.80, P < 0.001), preoperative CKD Stage 2 (HR: 1.81, P =0.02), and preoperative CKD Stage 3A (HR: 5.56, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Renal function decline is common after RC. Tumor stage, pre-operative eGFR, and ureteral stricture development, not surgical approach, influence renal function decline.

Abstract
Introduction: We sought to identify the factors associated with deterioration of renal functions after robot-assisted radical cystectomy, and to develop a nomogram to detect the probability of progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). Materials and Methods: A retrospective review of our prospectively maintained database. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the CKD-Epidemiology Collaboration creatinine formula utilizing all follow-up creatinine values. CKD was defined as stage 3b (eGFR <45 mL/minute/1.73 m2) based on the National Kidney Foundation classification. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to depict CKD-free survival. A multivariate Cox regression model was used to determine predictors for CKD and to build the perioperative nomogram. Results: The data set comprised 442 patients with a median follow-up of 25 months (12-59). Thirty-seven percent developed CKD at a median of 9 months (4-18). CKD-free survival rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were 75%, 58%, and 50%, respectively. CKD was significantly associated with preoperative eGFR (hazards ratio [HR]: 0.96, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.95-0.97, p < 0.01), body mass index (HR: 1.03, 95% CI: 1.01-1.05, p = 0.03), Charlson Comorbidity Index ≥3 (HR: 2.20, 95% CI: 1.35-3.58, p < 0.01), diabetes (HR: 1.59, 95% CI: 1.09-2.31, p = 0.02), 90 days postoperative strictures (HR: 4.04, 95% CI: 1.76-9.30, p < 0.01), 90 days postoperative hydronephrosis (HR: 2.26, 95% CI: 1.34-3.79, p < 0.01), 90 days recurrent urinary tract infection (HR: 1.84, 95% CI: 1.08-3.14, p = 0.02), 90 days acute kidney injury (HR: 1.70, 95% CI: 1.19-2.43, p < 0.01), and node positive disease (HR: 1.94, 95% CI: 1.31-2.86, p < 0.01). A 5-year CKD-free survival nomogram was developed. Conclusion: We have developed and cross-validated a nomogram for detecting CKD-free survival. This nomogram may have a role in counseling and follow up of patients. This study was done after the approval of the IRB committee (I-79606).

Prognostic value of preoperative hematologic biomarkers in urothelial carcinoma of the bladder treated with radical cystectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Int J Clin Oncol 2020; 25:1459-1474.

Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the prognostic value of preoperative hematologic biomarkers in patients with urothelial carcinoma of the bladder treated with radical cystectomy. PUBMED, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases were searched in September 2019 according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis statement. Studies were deemed eligible if they compared cancer-specific survival in patients with urothelial carcinoma of the bladder with and without pretreatment laboratoryabnormalities. Formal meta-analyses were performed for this outcome. The systematic review identified 36 studies with 23,632 patients, of these, 32 studies with 22,224 patients were eligible for the meta-analysis. Several preoperative hematologic biomarkers were significantly associated with cancer-specific survival as follows: neutrophil − lymphocyte ratio (pooled hazard ratio [HR]: 1.20, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.11–1.29), hemoglobin (pooled HR: 0.87, 95% CI 0.82–0.94), C-reactive protein (pooled HR: 1.44, 95% CI 1.26–1.66), De Ritis ratio (pooled HR: 2.18, 95% CI 1.37–3.48), white blood cell count (pooled HR: 1.05, 95% CI 1.02–1.07), and albumin-globulin ratio (pooled HR: 0.26, 95% CI 0.14–0.48). Several pretreatment laboratory abnormalities in patients with urothelial carcinoma of the bladder were associated with cancer-specific mortality. Therefore, it might be useful to incorporate such hematologic biomarkers into prognostic tools for urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. However, given the study limitations including heterogeneity and retrospective nature of the primary data, the conclusions should be interpreted with caution.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the influence of preoperative renal function on survival outcomes in patients who underwent radical cystectomy (RC) with non-continent urinary diversion (UD). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 132 patients with bladder cancer who underwent RC with non-continent UD due to urothelial carcinoma from January 2006 toMarch 2017 at our tertiary referral center were retrospectively evaluated. Patients were divided into 2 groups as those with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)<60mL/min/1.73 m2 and ≥60mL/min/1.73 m2 according to preoperative eGFR levels. Patients' characteristics, preoperative clinical data, operative data, pathologic data, oncologic data and complications were compared between the groups. RESULTS The mean age was 64.5±8.7 (range: 32 - 83) years and the median follow-up was 30.9±31.7 (range: 1-113) months. There were 46 patients in Group 1 and 86 patients in Group 2. There was no difference in cancer-specific mortality (45.6% for group 1 and 30.2% for group 2, p=0.078) and survival (56.8±8.3 months for group 1 and 70.5±5.9 months for group 2, p=0.087) between the groups. Overall mortality was higher (63% for group 1 and 40.7% for group 2, p=0.014) and overall survival (43.6±6.9 months for group 1 and 62.2±5.8 months for group 2, p=0.03) was lower in Group 1 compared to Group 2. CONCLUSIONS Overall mortality was higher and overall survival was lower in patients with preoperative eGFR<60mL/s. More patients had preoperative hydronephrosis with eGFR<60mL/s.

Abstract
The current status of robot-assisted radical cystectomy was reviewed 16 years after the initial robot-assisted radical cystectomy for the treatment of invasive bladder cancer. Articles associated with robot-assisted radical cystectomy and written in English were selected from the PubMed database from January 2003 to February 2019. The present review article focused on the distribution of robot-assisted radical cystectomy, patient selection, preoperative management, surgical technique, lymph node dissection, urinary diversion, recurrence pattern, oncological outcomes, cost, learning curve, complications and educational programs. A total of 400 articles were divided according to the country of the first author's affiliation. The USA was the most dominant at 198 (50%), whereas the number of articles from the countries belonging to the Urological Association of Asia was 15 (3.8%) for China, 17 (4.3%) for South Korea, 10 (2.5%) for Japan, eight (2%) for Taiwan, eight (2%) for Turkey and one (0.2%) for Iran. The percentage of robot-assisted radical cystectomy carried out is increasing, and intracorporeal urinary diversion and ileal neobladder are also frequently carried out. With a refined technique being performed in high-volume centers, robot-assisted radical cystectomy has contributed to the reduction in transfusion rate, length of stay and severe complications; however, it has not yet shown any cancer-specific survival benefits. Robot-assisted radical cystectomy is not fully spread throughout the Urological Association of Asia. Further investigation with respect to worldwide results is needed to prove the real benefit of robot-assisted radical cystectomy regarding low morbidity, reduced total medical cost, and survival benefit. In the era of precision medicine, appropriate drug and surgery will be given based on each genetic profile.

Abstract
For the management of muscle-invasive bladder cancer or upper tract urothelial carcinoma, the set guidelines recommend regular surveillance after radical cystectomy or radical nephroureterectomy. However, the prognostic benefit of regular oncological surveillance remains controversial in the absence of prospective studies although several retrospective studies with relatively large sample sizes have demonstrated the association between asymptomatic recurrence and better oncological outcomes. Seven out of eight studies reported that patients diagnosed with symptomatic recurrence showed significantly poorer prognosis in comparison to those diagnosed with asymptomatic recurrence. However, potential lead-time and length-time biases prevent the determination of any benefit of regular surveillance. In addition, an optimal surveillance protocol has yet to be established because conventional pathology-based protocols cannot identify the heterogenetic tumor biology of urothelial carcinoma, such as rapid- or slow-growing form of the disease. Several studies suggest that conventional pathology-based surveillance resulted in reduced cost-effectiveness. Recurrence risk-score stratified surveillance protocol including clinical and pathological factors may improve cost-effectiveness. The establishment of optimal risk stratification and surveillance strategies are required to improve the efficacy of regular oncological surveillance. Well-planned prospective studies are necessary to address the prognostic benefit of regular oncological surveillance and shared decision making.
