The Outcomes of Radical CystectomyThe Outcomes of Radical Cystectomy• Outcomes of RC are
very good.• Recurrences occur:• Median 12 months• 86% of recurrences
occur in first 3 years.• Local only recurrence
more likley in OC.• Most series- any
recurrence= death.• Even with LN+ve
disease, 30% likelihood of long term survival.
Stein et.al. Journal of Clinical Oncology, Vol 19, No 3 (February 1), 2001: pp 666-675
Upstaging is common with Bladder CancerUpstaging is common with Bladder Cancer• Based on TURBT, EUA, CT
– MRI with dynamic contrast enhancement and Fe particles may be better.
– Ureteric obstruction- 67%-90% >pT2 (Skinner et,al,1998)
• Muscle invasive bladder cancer (cT2) is upstaged to pT3 in:
– 52% (Soloway et.al.1994)
– 78% (Pagano et.al.1991)
– 41% (Frazier et.al.1992)
Most cT2 bladder cancers are pT3 or higher.
• Occult LN mets increase with increasing P stage
– P0, Pa, Pis, P1: 5%
– P2: 18-27%
– P3-4: 45%
Quality of Life After RC is Good.Quality of Life After RC is Good.• There are a number of QoL instruments for bladder cancer.
• Very few reports on QoL after BC treatment.
• Lack of baseline measurements.
• Lack of longitudinal measurements.
• No comparison of RC vs Bladder Preservation.
Only on prospective QoL study (SF-36) (Hardt et.al)
Physical functioning decreased pre-post-op (80 to 68)
Pain, health perception, vitality, social functioning, general well being, satisfaction with life all the same as pre-op at one year.

Radiation-ComplicationsRadiation-Complications
Early complications
• Diarrhea
• Bladder irritation (particularly if trigonal cancers)
Late complications (2-3 years later)
• Worse if heavily pretreated (TURBTS, BCG etc)
• Radiation cystitis (heamturia, frequency contracted bladder)
• Radiation proctitis (persistent diarrhea, rectal bleeding)
• Sexual dysfunction (60%)
Tumour Recurrence
• Invasive – salvage cystectomy
• Superficial- as per normal protocols
Neoadjuvant and Partial cystectomyNeoadjuvant and Partial cystectomy• Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (X3-4 cycles) followed by TURBT
staging.
• Then followed by partial cystectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection.
• Herr et.al (n=26). No Pt was eligible for PC alone.
– 19 had P0
– 7 yr median FU: 65% alive
54% with bladder
18% invasive recurrence
26% superficial recurrence
PC is a valid option in suitable patients, even with T3 tumours that are small.
Neoadjuvant and TURBTNeoadjuvant and TURBT• Neoadjuvant chemo (3-4 cycles).
• Restaging TURBT.
• Stenberg et.al (n=71). T2-T4a
– Median 54 months FU: 71% alive
57% bladder intact
After chemo: P0 or superficial disease, 5yr survival = 71%
Invasive disease 29%
MSKCC (n=111)
60(54%) achieved T0 status.- Most preserved bladders
56% recurrence in bladder (30% invasive)
25% of T0 is not P0.
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy and TURBTNeoadjuvant chemotherapy and TURBT• Srougi et.al. (n=30)
• TURBT, MVACX3.
– PR or no response > cystectomy (n=12)
– CR > all retained their bladder (n=14)
• 5 yrs, 71% (10) had local recurrences.
– 8 had radical cystectomy
• Survival of all CR pts was 79% @ 5yrs.
• All patients need close observation because of inadequate staging All patients need close observation because of inadequate staging and occurrence of new tumours.and occurrence of new tumours.
Trimodality TherapyTrimodality Therapy• Maximal TURBT
• XRT
• Concurrent chemotherapy
• Rational
– Cisplatin, 5-FU and paclitaxel sensitise tumour tissues to XRT.
– Increase cell kill in a synergisitic fashion.
– Also high (25%-50%) chance of micro-metastatic disease at presentation.
Does the radiation add anything, as XRT outcomes are similar to TURBT outcomes?

• All tumours are small.
• All tumours are able to be maximally resected.
• These are not the same tumours in cystectomy series.These are not the same tumours in cystectomy series.
• All patients are healthy with good ECOG status
• All patients were eligible for cystectomy.
Clinical Preictors of OutcomeClinical Preictors of Outcome• Stage (cT2=62%, cT3=47%)
• Hydronephrosis (CR= 37% vs 68%)

Quality of Life
• Cystectomy for bladder contracture (2-7%)
• On going urinary symptoms
• Women-19% incontinence
• Reduced urinary compliance in 22%
• Bowel symptoms- 22%
• Sexual dysfunction
Concerns with Bladder sparing therapyConcerns with Bladder sparing therapy• Need for complete TURBT (visibly clear)
– CR 77% vs 54% for visble and not visible complete resection.
– Survival 52% vs 34% @ 5 yrs
• Urothelial cancer change
– Those with CR to trimodality will develop
– 20-30% new or recurrent bladder tumor
– Occur median of 2.1 years and mainly CIS
– Ultimately 1/3 of recurrence need late cystectomy.
• Pelvic recurrence
– 12%
• Delay in cystectomy
• Limited diversion alternatives.
Is Bladder Preservation Equivalent to Is Bladder Preservation Equivalent to Radical Cystectomy?Radical Cystectomy?
• No but!
• Viable alternative for Pts wanting to preserve bladder
• Only small likely decrease in survival
• But
• Not all patients are suitable
• 50% will ultimately have cystectomy
– Diversion choices will be limited.
– Operation more difficult and complications higher.
• Not evidence that quality of life is actually better.
• A number of pts will have significant bladder and bowel symptoms.
