Oncological safety of simultaneous transurethral resection of high-grade urothelial carcinoma of the bladder and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Arab J Urol 2022; 21:102-107. [PMID: 37234675 PMCID: PMC10208128 DOI: 10.1080/2090598x.2022.2142365] [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: 07/16/2022] [Revised: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives To examine the oncological safety of simultaneous resection of bladder tumor and prostate in the presence of non-muscle invasive high-grade urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB). Materials and Methods Between 2007 and 2019, 170 men with high-grade UCB who had a follow-up of at least 12 months were included in the study, including 123 with transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) only and 47 with simultaneous TURBT and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). We recorded and compared patients' clinicopathological parameters, recurrence, and progression rates during the follow-up period, as well as time to UCB recurrence in the bladder and the prostatic urethra/fossa. Results Baseline demographic and pathological characteristics were comparable between the groups. At a median follow-up of 31 months in both groups, there were no significant differences in recurrence rates in the bladder and the prostatic urethra/fossa in either group (34.1% and 7.3% vs. 36.2 and 6.4%, p=0.402, p=0.363). No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of follow-up time, elapsed time to recurrence, or and progression in the bladder or prostatic urethra/fossa. Conclusions Simultaneous TURBT and TURP in the presence of high-grade UCB appears to be oncologically safe in selected patients.

Concomitant Endoscopic Surgery for Bladder Tumors and Prostatic Obstruction: Are We Safely Hitting Two Birds with One Stone? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11206208. [PMID: 36294528 PMCID: PMC9604964 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11206208] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Revised: 10/09/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) caused by benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) and bladder tumors may co-exist, especially among elderly patients. Transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT) and endoscopic surgery for benign prostatic obstruction in the same setting are avoided by many surgeons due to concerns for tumor cell seeding and recurrences in the prostatic urethra. AIM The aim of this study was assess the effect of concomitant TURBT and endoscopic BPO surgery on oncological safety and patient quality of life via systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS We searched the PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Scopus, and Clinicaltrials.gov databases and sources of grey literature published before June 2021 for relevant studies. We performed a random-effects meta-analysis of odds ratios (ORs) or weighted mean differences (WMD) to compare concomitant TURBT and BPO surgery versus TURBT alone in terms of recurrence and progression rates. Accordingly, we undertook multiple subgroups and sensitivity analyses (PROSPERO: CRD42020173363). RESULTS Three randomized and twelve retrospective observational studies with 2421 participants were included. Across studies with good methodological quality, no statistically significant differences were demonstrated regarding overall bladder tumors recurrence rates between concomitant endoscopic BPO surgery and TURBT versus TURBT alone (OR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.60-1.09, I2 = 42%). Similarly, no significant differences were observed in recurrences located at the bladder neck and/or prostatic urethra (OR: 1.06, 95% CI: 0.76-1.47, I2 = 0%), time to first recurrence (WMD: -0.2 months, 95% Cl: -2.2-1.8, I2 = 48%), and progression rate (OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 0.67-1.64, I2 = 0%). Subgroup analyses based on tumor grade, number of tumors, and utilization of single-instillation chemotherapy post-TURBT did not detect any significant differences in overall bladder tumor recurrence. The level of evidence was estimated as low for all outcomes. Concomitant surgery improved lower urinary tract symptoms. CONCLUSION Concomitant endoscopic BPO surgery and TURBT are oncologically safe and improve LUTS-related quality of life.

Prognostic value of prostate volume in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Sci Rep 2021; 11:18784.

Abstract
There is evidence that a history of benign prostatic hyperplasia increases the incidence of bladder cancer, and treatment with 5-alpha reductase inhibitor or androgen deprivation therapy reduces recurrence of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. We aimed to evaluate whether prostate volume affects its prognosis. We reviewed medical records of men who underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor due to non-muscle invasive bladder cancer from January 2012 to December 2017. Patients were divided into two groups based on prostate volume measured by computed tomography (group 1: 264 patients with ≤ 30 mL, group 2: 124 patients with > 30 mL). Propensity score matching analysis was used for adjust selection bias, and then assessed recurrence-free survival and progression-free survival. With a median follow up duration of 52 months, group 1 showed higher 5-year recurrence-free and progression-free survival (69.3% vs 47.0%, p = 0.001; 96.7% vs 87.7%, p = 0.002). Further, cox-regression analysis showed that tumor size (HR = 1.292 p < 0.001), multifocal tumor (HR = 1.993, p < 0.001), adjuvant intravesical therapy (chemotherapy: HR = 0.580, p = 0.037 and bacillus Calmette-Guérin: HR = 0.542, p = 0.004) and prostate volume (HR = 2.326, p < 0.001) were significant predictors of recurrence-free survival. Prostate volume (HR = 2.886, p = 0.014) was also associated with PFS with age (HR = 1.043, p = 0.044) and tumor grade (HR = 3.822, p = 0.013). We conclude higher prostate volume is associated with worse recurrence and progression-free survival in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

Abstract
Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is still the gold standard for the diagnosis, treatment, and staging of nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer. En bloc resection of bladder tumor (EBRT) has been recently introduced to overcome the limitations of conventional TURBT. EBRT potential advantages are (1) complete resection, (2) a more precise and controlled resection (potentially fewer complications), (3) better sample orientation for histopathology analysis, (4) presence of detrusor in the specimen, and (5) less tumor seeding on normal urothelium by tumor fragments. This article aimed to present a step-by-step technique of conventional TURBT and EBRT with thulium laser support. We also aimed to provide tips and tricks for a correct surgical procedure and postoperative patient care. Finally, clinical outcomes of TURBT versus EBRT were reviewed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to examine the clinical efficacy of simultaneous transurethral resection of bladder cancer and the prostate (TURBT + TURP) in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients. METHOD We conducted systematic research in PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases to identify retrospective studies and prospective randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing patient outcomes between TURBT + TURP and TURBT-only patients. The meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.3. RESULTS We identified eight relevant studies involving a total of 1032 patients. We found that patients that underwent TURBT + TURP exhibited significantly lower recurrence rates [odds ratio (OR), 0.70; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.53-0.93; p = .01] and increased maximal urinary flow rate (Qmax) (WMD, 5.92; 95% CI, 4.67-7.16; p < .001) compared with patients that underwent TURBT-only. However, rates of recurrence at the prostatic urethra/bladder neck and bladder tumor progression, as well as the time to recurrence did not differ significantly between these two groups. CONCLUSIONS Simultaneous TURBT + TURP can be safely performed in patients with NMIBC and BPH and improves patient quality of life, without any risk of increasing tumor recurrence or metastasis rates. Comprehensive RCTs are needed to confirm the results of this study.

Abstract
Objectives To evaluate recurrence and progression risk after simultaneous endoscopic surgery of bladder cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), as simultaneous surgery is not an unusual scenario and theoretically simultaneous transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) can lead to an increased risk of recurrence in the bladder neck and prostatic urethra (BN/PU). Methods We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis to assess the risk of recurrence (i.e. whole bladder and/or BN/PU) and tumour progression as outcomes after a simultaneous endoscopic surgery of bladder tumour and BPH, as compared to TURBT alone. We queried PubMed and Web of Science database on 1 January 2020. We used random‐ and/or fixed‐effects meta‐analytic models in the presence or absence of heterogeneity according to the I2 statistic, respectively. Results Nine retrospective and three clinical trial studies were selected after considering inclusion and exclusion criteria. We conducted the meta‐analysis on retrospective and randomised controlled trials (RCTs) separately. Eight retrospective and three RCT studies were included to assess the BN/PU recurrence risk and the summarised risk ratio (RR) was 1.02 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.74–1.41) and 0.93 (95% CI 0.47–1.84), respectively. Five retrospective and two RCT studies were included to assess the progression risk and the summarised RR was 0.91 (95% CI 0.56–1.48) and 1.16 (95% CI 0.30–4.51), respectively. Eight retrospective and three RCT studies were included to assess the whole bladder recurrence risk and the summarised RR was 0.87 (95% CI 0.78–0.97) and 0.89 (95% CI 0.65–1.21), respectively. Conclusion We did not observe any increased risk of total bladder recurrence, BN/PU recurrence, or progression after a simultaneous endoscopic surgery of bladder tumour and BPH, as compared to TURBT alone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To access the surgical and oncological outcomes of simultaneous thulium laser enucleation of bladder tumor (ThuLEBT) and thulium laser enucleation of prostate (ThuLEP) in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder tumor (NMIBC) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). PATIENTS AND METHODS Between June 2009 and June 2017, 118 men with NMIBC who underwent simultaneous ThuLEBT and ThuLEP and fulfilled the inclusion criteria were matched with 118 patients who received ThuLEBT alone. Clinicopathological parameters, surgical outcome data and oncological outcomes were retrospectively analyzed and compared. RESULTS The patients who underwent simultaneous ThuLEBT and ThuLEP experienced a longer length of operation time (70.4 vs. 25.5 min; p < 0.001), but there were no statistically significant differences in catheterization period, hospital stay and complication between the two groups. At a mean follow-up of 58.7 and 55.8 months in ThuLEBT/ThuLEP group and ThuLEBT group, no significant differences in overall recurrence rates, progression rates, recurrence in the bladder neck/prostatic fossa and mean elapsed time to recurrence were detected. The 5-year recurrence-free probability was 73.2% for ThuLEBT/ThuLEP and 69.2% for ThuLEBT (p = 0.361). CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that simultaneous ThuLEBT and ThuLEP can be safely performed without increasing the surgical risk and the risk of tumor recurrence and progression in patients with NMIBC and BPH, and it may be preferred alternative for select patients.

Abstract
Traditional measures of quality and effectiveness in surgical oncology have focused on morbidity, mortality, and when available, recurrence rates. Measuring patient-reported outcomes (PROs) has become more widely accepted during the last decade. This article reviews instruments commonly used in the surgical treatment of cancer patients to evaluate PROs. In addition, it discusses the linkage of PROs and health-related quality of life measures with traditional surgical complications and highlights future directions related to the expanding use of PROs in the surgical care of cancer patients.
